Card 14 / 60:
What can be inferred about the evolution of the cranium and the vertebral column from examining hagfishes and lampreys?
Comparison of hagfishes with lampreys shows that the cranium evolved first in early vertebrates, as it is seen in hagfishes, which evolved earlier than lampreys. This was followed by evolution of the vertebral column, a primitive form of which is seen in lampreys and not in hagfishes.
