The open circulatory system is common to molluscs and arthropods. Open circulatory systems (evolved in crustaceans, insects, mollusks and other invertebrates) pump blood into a hemocoel with the blood diffusing back to the circulatory system between cells. Blood is pumped by a heart into the body cavities, where tissues are surrounded by the blood.

Two of the largest phyla in the world, Arthropoda and Mollusca, have an open circulatory system. Arthropods, members of the phylum Arthropoda, include most insects and sea organisms like crabs and lobsters. 'Arthro' is Greek for 'joint,' and 'pod' is Greek for 'leg,' so we combine this into 'jointed legs.' Think of what a grasshopper or a lobster look like; joint-legs is a great way to describe these animals!
Molluscs are members of the phylum Mollusca. They are typically bivalves, or organisms with two shells that are hinged together. Examples include clams and oysters. However, not all molluscs have an open circulatory system. Two major members of the mollusc family, octopus and squid, have a closed circulatory system
