Compare and contrast the digestive systems of earthworms and cockroaches. How do these organisms process food differently?

Earthworms have a complete digestive system with a mouth and anus. They have a specialized structure called the typhlosole to increase the surface area for absorption. Cockroaches, on the other hand, have a chewing mechanism to break down food and a crop and gizzard for digestion.
