Cephalochordates (lancelets) feed on plankton with plant cells, diatoms being the most important. The entire branchial basket is an adaptation for feeding with the endostyle continuously producing a mucus-net that is transported over the gill slits by cilia and capturing particles out of the water. The food particles together with the mucus net are rolled into a mass and passed on into the esophagus and the posterior intestine where they are digested.

How does a lancelet obtain food?
The Lancelet is a filter feeder, so it will open its mouth - which has up to 100 or so gill slits - and as water passes through the mouth and gills, sticky mucus will catch and hold food particles, and after water has passed through, the Lancelet will swallow the mucus, and ta da! It has food.
