What is the difference between open and close circulatory system?
Closed circulatory systems have blood that does not flow in defined blood vessels. Examples are insects and how their organs are bathed continually in "blood". Open circulatory systems have blood that flows in vessels. Humans have this system as blood flows in veins, arteries and capillaries.
What is the difference between coronary arteries and vessels?

What is the difference between an open open and closed circulatory system?
