Solution

The correct option is A
True

In an open circulatory system, the blood is not confined within blood vessels. The blood bathes the organs and tissues directly. As a result, the blood and the interstitial fluid have no distinction. Open circulatory systems evolved in crustaceans, insects, mollusks and other invertebrates. Prawns belong to phylum arthropoda, which are invertebrates.
