An open digestive system is one where there is an entrance "mouth" in one end of the organism and an "exit" or anus of some sort in the other end of the organism. (think of worms or people). A closed digestive system is in something like a hydra or anemone where there is just one cavity and one opening that acts as both mouth and anus.
