The categorization of such beings as vascular beings means that they contain a circulatory system, with vessels which distribute substances all the way through the body.

Cnidarians, Poriferans, and flatworms do not contain a circulatory system. In nematodes there is circulation of nutrients and gases through the pseudocoelom fluid.
