Verified by Toppr

Spermatheca is pear shaped internal sacs, which receive and store sperm during the process of copulation. There are four pairs of spermatheca present in an earthworm in the 5/6, 6/7 7/8 and 8/9 segments. The spermatheca opens externally by four pairs of separate spermathecal pores lying ventrolaterally in the grooves between 5/6, 6/7, 7/8 and 8/9 segments. Thus, the correct answer is option A.
