y do worms come up to surface, when its raining!!!!!!!!!?

Answer 1

Earthworms can survive for several weeks under water providing there is sufficient oxygen in the water to support them. They surface as a response to high relative humidity after rain They can move around safely without dehydrating. One theory is that surfacing before and during heavy rains is an evolutionary behavioral adaptation enabling them to be dispersed

Answer 2

Do earthworms floor to ward off drowning? No. actual earthworms can stay to tell the tale a number of weeks underwater as long as their is sufficient oxygen to help them. So why do earthworms floor in the process the rain? They floor by way of fact the moist circumstances enable them to pass to new places wisely devoid of dehydrating - If an earthworm's epidermis dries out, they'll suffocate. Earthworms breath by their epidermis and their epidermis might desire to be stored moist to be certain that oxygen to bypass by and the moister interior the air/soil after it rains helps that to take place.
