Clam worms, also known as Nereis, use a specialized digestive system that includes a pharynx, which can extend to capture prey, and a gut that runs through their body. The gut is divided into regions where food is broken down and nutrients are absorbed. Digestive glands also assist in breaking down food, aiding in the digestion process. Overall, these structures work together to efficiently process the organic matter the worms consume.
