Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Arthropods possess an open circulatory system consisting of a dorsal heart and a system of arteries that may be very limited (as in insects) or extensive (as in crabs). The arteries deliver blood into tissue spaces (hemocoels), from which it eventually drains back to a large pericardial sinus surrounding the heart.
Detailed explanation-2: -EXPLANATION: Arthropods have an open circulatory system. In open circulatory system blood is not enclosed in the blood vessels, but it is pumped into a cavity, which is called hemocoel.
Detailed explanation-3: -Open circulation happens when there are no vessels to contain the blood, and it flows freely through the cavities of the body.
