Answer:

Hemolymph

Step-by-step explanation:

Hemolymph is the circulatory fluid of arthropods such as spiders and lobster, it can vary in composition and color according to the arthropod diet.

It is composed of salts such as sodium, chlorine, potassium, also organic compounds and water, with a high content of amino acids whose concentration varies according to the maturity of the arthropod.

Hemolymph represents between 5% and 40% of the weight of the arthropod and fulfills functions similar to those performed by blood in vertebrates, such as coagulation for wound healing, among others.
