Summary Introduction

To determine:

The difference between hemolymph and the blood.

Explanation of Solution

Hemolymph is fundamentally an interstitial fluid that enters into the body tissues. It is pumped through the open-ended circulatory system. Vertebrate blood refers to the circulatory fluid that remains inside the vessels. The blood is pumped through a closed circulatory system and exchanges materials with the cells of the body through the interstitial fluid. 

Erythrocytes are present in the blood, whereas it is absent in the hemolymph. High concentrations of amino acid are present in the blood, which is absent in the hemolymph. Major components of the blood are the red blood cells and plasma, whereas the major part of the hemolymph is formed of water.
