How does an open circulatory system differ from a closed one? O An open circulatory system opens into arteries and is drained by veins whereas in a closed one it is just the reverse.

O An open circulatory system opens into the heart whereas the closed circulatory system does not. O An open circulatory system drains into the mantle cavity whereas a cloed circulatory system drains into the hemolymph. A closed circulatory system is completely encased in the body cavity whereas the open one is not.
