Identify which type of circulatory system that a cephalopod develops?

Cephalopods, such as octopuses and squids, have a closed circulatory system. This system consists of a heart that pumps blood through a series of vessels for efficient distribution of oxygen and nutrients to tissues and organs.


Do humans have an opened or closed circulatory system?

Humans have a closed circulatory system, in which blood is pumped by the heart through dedicated vessels, where it stays contained, as opposed to an open circulatory system (usually found in invertebrates) where blood is pumped out of the heart and vessels.


How is a cephalopods way of moving different from that of most mollusks?

Cephalopods are the only mollusks with a closed circulatory system. They have two gill hearts (also known as branchial hearts) that move blood through the capillaries of the gills. A single systemic heart then pumps the oxygenated blood through the rest of the body. Like most molluscs, cephalopods use hemocyanin, rather than hemoglobin to transport oxygen


Compare the circulatory system of each of the three major classes of mollusks?

In cephalopods like octopuses, the circulatory system is closed, with blood contained in vessels. Bivalves like clams have an open circulatory system where blood is pumped into a hemocoel. Gastropods, such as snails, have a mix of closed and open circulatory systems, with a heart that pumps blood through vessels but also into spaces around organs.

Mollusks like clams and snails have a simple heart that pumps through open-ended vessels?

Mollusks, a member of the crustacean family, have an open circulatory system meaning blood flows freely within their body cavity. However they still have a three chambered heart. The heart pumps blood through open-ended vessels and the blood simply flows back into the heart on it's own or through incidental muscular contractions of the mollusks body during feeding or moving.


Closed or open circulatory system in crab?

Frogs have a double circulatory system, which means that circulation goes from the heart to the lungs (where it becomes oxygenated), then returns to the heart, then is pumped to the rest of the body (which takes the oxygen), and then returns to the heart. They have a closed circulatory system, which means that the blood travels through the body in vessels. Frogs have a three-chambered heart.
