In an insect, A. nutrients are circulated through an open circulatory system.

Explanation:

Insect respiration is independent of its circulatory system, that's way the blood does not play a direct role in oxygen transport and the circulatory system is responsible for exchange of respiratory gases. Insects also have an open circulatory system as opposed to our closed circulatory system.
