A Correct answer
Explanation

Worms are complex organisms with different tissues, organ system and body design. Also, they multiply by sexual reproduction which requires gamete formation, fertilisation, development, etc. before a new organism is born. Thus, it takes a longer time to produce new individuals that have complex body structures. So, due to the above reasons, the worms multiply slowly.
