The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the following options has a closed circulatory system, we will analyze each option provided: 1. **Arthropoda**: - Arthropods, which include insects, arachnids, and crustaceans, have an open circulatory system. In this system, the blood (hemolymph) is not confined entirely within blood vessels and bathes the organs directly in a hemocoel. - **Hint**: Remember that arthropods have a hemolymph that flows freely in body cavities. 2. **Annelida**: - Annelids, such as earthworms, possess a closed circulatory system. In this system, the blood is contained within vessels, allowing for more efficient transport of nutrients and gases. - **Hint**: Annelids are segmented worms with a more complex circulatory system compared to arthropods. 3. **Platyhelminthes**: - Platyhelminthes, or flatworms, do not have a circulatory system at all. They rely on diffusion for the transport of nutrients and gases due to their flat shape. - **Hint**: Flatworms are simple organisms that do not require a circulatory system because of their body structure. 4. **Mollusca**: - Mollusks, such as snails and octopuses, typically have an open circulatory system, although some cephalopods (like octopuses) have a more complex system that can be considered closed. However, in general, mollusks are classified with an open system. - **Hint**: Most mollusks have an open circulatory system, but some exceptions exist. After analyzing all the options, we conclude that the only group with a closed circulatory system is **Annelida**. **Final Answer**: The correct answer is **Option 2: Annelida**.
