The atrial cavity in a lancelet serves as a space that facilitates the flow of water through the organism's body. It plays a crucial role in respiration and feeding by allowing water to pass over the gills, where gas exchange occurs and food particles can be filtered out. This cavity helps maintain the lancelet's simple body plan while supporting its basic physiological functions.

What are the Prominent muscular ridges that run along the inner surface of the auricle and across the adjacent atrial wall?
The prominent muscular ridges that run along the inner surface of the auricle and across the adjacent atrial wall are known as the pectinate muscles. These muscles are particularly well-developed in the right atrium, extending from the auricle into the main atrial cavity. They play a role in increasing the surface area of the atrium and are involved in the contraction of the atrial wall during the cardiac cycle.
