The same reason you don't grow wings and fly. Each organism's DNA has the code - this code ultimately determines what cells will become in development - in turn what something will look like (turn into) or what function an organ or limb might have.

If a worm grow wings and fly , it will no longer remain a worm :) ... they are meant for creeping.

Because species evolve in the direction that will enable their chances of survival. If it grew wings.....it would be flying (more than likely alot worse) than it's primary predator.....a bird. Ha....that's why worms WON'T grow wings. Stinking birds!

environments on earth are adapted differently depending on the environments in which they live. These enrollments also regulate the kind of food that the organisms eat, their mode of reproduction and even their mode of respiration and thus their mode of movement.
A worm for instance breaths through its skin and thus demands that this skin be moist for better gaseous exchange.
thus a worm does not need to be on air during any part of its life,thus it can't growwigsandfly

Wings are not coded in a worm's DNA.

The DNA says it's a worm, not an insect, a bat or a bird.
