Pharyngeal slits are not gill slits. They are filter-feeding organs in non-vertebrates, and are used to strain matter and food from water.
Organisms that have pharyngeal gill slits and a dorsal hollow nerve cord at some point in their development include chordates, such as fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. These features are key characteristics of chordates during their embryonic stages.
"Jaws are believed to have evolved from the first pair of gill arches of agnathans. The second pair of gill arches became support structures for the jaws." - Biology Laboratory Manual, Ninth Edition Darrel S. Vodopich and Randy MooreSo, sharks have fewer gill slits because the first two pairs became the jaw and the structural support for the jaw.
All chordates have a notochord at some stage in their development, even if it is only at the embryonic stage. The notochord is a flexible structure located in front of the dorsal nerve, which all chordates also have.
Yes, frogs have pharyngeal pouches, which are structures in their throat that aid in respiration. These pouches play a role in the exchange of gases during breathing.
Chordates all possess a notochord (dorsal supporting rod), gill slits, and a dorsal nerve cord some time in their life cycles.
gill slits
Chordates are the organisms that have a rod like cartilagenous structure called notochord which gives rise to nervous system. These have pharyngeal gill slits. Nonchordates are the organisms that do not have a notochord. These do not have pharyngeal gill slits.
Gills I think, like pharyngeal gill slits ... maybe ....

They are: a. a dorsal, hollow nerve chord b. a notochord c. pharyngeal gill slits d. and a post-anal tail
for plato users the answer is B. notochrd, nerve cord, pharyngeal gill slits, postanal tail
Yes, sharks develop their breathing organs, specifically gills, from pharyngeal arches. During embryonic development, these arches form structures that eventually give rise to the gill filaments and other components of the respiratory system. This process is part of the broader evolutionary pattern seen in many vertebrates, where pharyngeal structures play a crucial role in respiratory development.
It would be more appropriate to say that all vertebrate embryos develop pharyngeal gill slits during one of the many phases in their embryonic development. This is because while gills are specifically present in fishes, pharyngeal gill slits are a general chordate feature.

The correct spelling is "pharyngeal."
Gills provide means of respiration for most fishes. Gills function very similar to that of our lungs. Pharyngeal gill slits usually help to filter out waste particles during breathing in of the water.
The pharyngeal gill slits in chordates are typically paired structures, found on either side of the pharynx. These slits are important for respiration, filter feeding, and in some cases, evolved into other structures such as jaws in vertebrates.
