Asellus Blood Flow

The video tutorial explores the circulatory systems in animals, focusing on the open system in crustaceans like Acelus aquaticus. It demonstrates how to prepare and observe a young Acelus under a microscope to study its hemolymph flow. The tutorial explains the differences between open and closed circulatory systems, highlighting the role of pleopods in increasing surface area for oxygen diffusion.
