Habitat
Most roundworms and flatworms are found in all parts of the Earth such as in soil, salt flats, and aquatic sediments.

Adaptation to their environment

Unsegmented worms also have specialized cells such as muscles cells which help worms to contract and twist their bodies. However, some of unsegmented worms are parasitic and may cause terrible damages and diseases to living organism.
