Apr 24, 2019 · Humans have a closed circulatory system, while many mollusks and other invertebrates have an open system. In a closed circulatory system, blood is enclosed within blood vessels. The following image is a diagram of the closed circulatory system in a human.
The human body is divided into a number of body cavities, fluid-filled spaces in the body that hold and protect internal organs. The two largest human body cavities are the ventral cavity and dorsal cavity. The ventral cavity is at the anterior (or front) of the trunk.

Sep 23, 2021 · The mammalian circulatory system is a closed system with double circulation passing through the lungs and the body. It consists of a network of vessels containing blood that circulates because of pressure differences generated by the heart.
A body cavity is a fluid-filled space inside the body that holds and protects internal organs. Human body cavities are separated by membranes and other structures. The two largest human body cavities are the ventral cavity and the dorsal cavity. These two body cavities are subdivided into smaller body cavities.
Oct 31, 2023 · In a closed circulatory system, blood is contained inside blood vessels, circulating unidirectionally (in one direction) from the heart around the systemic circulatory route, then returning to the heart again.

The circulatory systems of all vertebrates, as well as of annelids (for example, earthworms) and cephalopods (squids, octopuses and relatives) always keep their circulating blood enclosed within heart chambers or blood vessels and are classified as closed, just as in humans.
