Read the paragraph.

Sand dollars live on the seafloor. They eat plankton and crab larvae. They use spines and grippers on their body's surface to capture this food. Then tiny hairs transport the food to a central mouth on their bottom side. The mouth has a jaw to grind up the tiny food particles. Food may take two days to digest.
