Earthworms do not have a lymphatic system like vertebrates. Instead, they possess a simple circulatory system that uses blood vessels to transport nutrients and waste. Their body fluid, coelomic fluid, serves a similar function to lymph, helping in nutrient distribution and waste removal. Thus, while they lack a specific lymphatic system, they have alternative mechanisms for fluid circulation and homeostasis.
