How many brains does a leech have?

Leeches are types of worms. Their closest relatives are earthworms.

The surface of the leech's body can be divided into 102, but the internal structure is divided into 32 segments. Each of these 32 segments has its own segment of the brain. Every leech also has two reproductive organs and 9 pairs of testes.

Leeches usually inhabit marshes, rivers and ponds. One-fifth of all leeches live in the sea, while certain species live attached to the forest vegetation. The most popular species of leeches is Hirudo medicinalis, better known as a medical leech. It is used for medical procedures. Due to similarity with the nervous system of humans, leeches are often used in the investigations of brain disorders.
