	Circulation
		Snails don't have capillary veins and arterioles, which means their blood doesn't flow within tube-like structures (veins and arteries) during the whole circulation, but at the tissue level the blood circulates free between the cells and structures embedded in blood cavities (hemocoels) within the body (= open circulation).
		The anterior aorta connects the heart with the head (cephalic hemocoel) and the foot (foot hemocoel), while the posterior aorta divides close to the heart with one artery distributing the blood to the digestive system and the second serves several other organs (testis, ovaria, intestines etc.).
		After circulating through the tissues and hemocoels of the snail, the blood is collected in large veins and brought to the posterior kidney.

	ADW: Arthropoda: Information
		Most of the body cavity is an open "hemocoel," or space filled loosely with tissue, sinuses, and blood.
		The circulatory system is open and consists of a heart, arteries, and the open spaces of the hemocoel.
		Respiration takes place through the body surface, and/or by means of gills, tracheae, or book lungs.

	Uli Theopold Group
		Arthropods with their open circulatory systems seal wounds and keep bacteria from entering the hemocoel using efficient clotting systems.
		In collaboration with the group of Dr. M Dushay (Södertörns Högskola, Stockholm) we have established methods to study this reaction in Drosophila melanogaster.
		Using these methods, we were able show that during Drosophila clotting, extracellular webs are formed which immobilize bacteria and prevent their dissemination into the hemocoel (Fig.1).

		The scientific study of molluscs is called malacology.
		The principal body cavity is a blood-filled hemocoel.
		It is unknown whether they have a true coelom (eucoelom); any coelomic cavities have been reduced to vestiges around the hearts, gonads, and metanephridia (kidney-like organs).

	hemocoel
		A Hemocoel is a cavity or series of spaces between the organs of organisms with open circulatory systems like most arthropods and mollusks.
		A combination of blood, lymph, and interstitial fluid called hemolymph circulates through the hemocoel.A Hemocoel is also the space in the connective tissue compartment derived from the embryonic blastocoel with contributions from mesoderm, filled with blood.
