I think the deficiency of dedicated respiratory and circulatory systems in Planarians does not cause a problem because none of their cells are far removed from the gastrovascular cavity or from the external environment. Planarians are free-living flatworms and form the class Turbellarians in the Phylum Platyhelminthes. Flatworms have three tissue layers, that is the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.
