What's the difference between circulatory and gastrovascular?
Circulatory
Definition:
(a.) Circular; as, a circulatory letter.
(a.) Circulating, or going round.
(a.) Subserving the purposes of circulation; as, circulatory organs; of or pertaining to the organs of circulation; as, circulatory diseases.
(n.) A chemical vessel consisting of two portions unequally exposed to the heat of the fire, and with connecting pipes or passages, through which the fluid rises from the overheated portion, and descends from the relatively colder, maintaining a circulation.
Example Sentences:

Gastrovascular
Definition:
(a.) Having the structure, or performing the functions, both of digestive and circulatory organs; as, the gastrovascular cavity of c/lenterates.
Example Sentences:
