Burrowing Polychaete Worms

Worms of different sizes extend burrows through muddy sediments by fracture applying dorso-ventral forces that are amplified. The most generalised polychaetes are those that crawl along the bottom but others have adapted to many different ecological niches including burrowing. This study suggests that I-shaped burrow dominants the burrow architecture of P The polychaete with large size has a higher. However adult worms can burrow up to 10 cm and may escape the disturbance Juveniles can only burrow up to 2 cm into the sediment and are likely to be. The initial burrow is not cylindrical Rather it is more tongue-depressor shaped with the burrow extending laterally and anteriorly..
