Nope. Were you hinting at something? As far as I know no worm can eat an entire apple regardless of a long time period. Don't know much about worms though except that 1 decagram of myelin can't be extracted from 4 tons of earth worms.

No. If you're referring to fictional giant sandworms the answer is definitely no.

The body of a worm is a long tube.
An apple can enter a long tube.
Therefore an apple can enter the body of a worm.

Not bad. I guess sometimes I have a retrograde way of thinking. I had something more common and realistic in mind, that is to say, there's nothing unusual about the intended answer.

I suppose in this case "an apple" is not equal to "entire apple" - just a tiny amount of "apple matter" that a worm is capable of biting off and consuming?

Nice try. I was actually thinking that this darn worm ate a whole apple naturally w/o the pip. I repeat. I am not talking about fictional sandworm.

Considerapple made up of atoms ,and worm eats food made up of atoms.hence atoms of apple enters worm and hence the apple.(apple can change intoworms food through recycleing of nature)
I name everything the worm eats as apple.
apple gets arose from seeds. And Some mad scientist put it in worm

You're astray.
The clue: This particular worm is not what you would expect it to be.

Worm=informal old-fashioned an unpleasant person who does not deserve respect:
Don't be such a worm. You don't have to lie to me.
Then
He can eat it like normal person and apple can enter the body.Thanks for your hint

I think perhaps AkashM's answer is slightly more correct, since a surname would generally have a capital letter.
