Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In grasshoppers, as in many other insects, the body tissues are bathed in blood that is contained within a body cavity known as the hemocoel. The hemocoel is part of the open circulatory system characteristic of these organisms, where blood (or hemolymph) is not confined solely to blood vessels but fills body cavities, directly bathing organs and tissues.
