Q

Main differences between lamprey and higher fish pharyngeal skeletons

A
  1. In lampreys, the structure is a connected network, not separate arches
  2. In lampreys, it is connected to the pericardial cartilage
  3. Branchial basket in lampreys lies superficially, just beneath the skin and lateral to the gills, rather than deep and medial to the gills
