Cirri are small, hair-like structures found on certain marine animals, particularly invertebrates like barnacles and some species of worms. They are used primarily for feeding and locomotion; cirri can help filter food particles from the water or assist in moving the organism through its environment. In barnacles, for example, cirri are extended to capture plankton and other nutrients while the animal is anchored to a surface. Overall, cirri play a crucial role in the survival and feeding strategies of these organisms.

The horseshoe crab is a consumer, because they use food to get energy.
Barnacles don't move from place to place. Once they are attached, they stay where they are for their entire lives. The only movement you will see is the filter feeding cirri that go in and out of the barnacle.
