A lot of critical structures derive from the arches of tissue between those gill slits. We can relate those structures back to the jawless fishes.

That doesn't prove anything. Human sin caused embryos to have gill slits and tails.

Human embryos show evidence of gills.
Ontogeny reiterates phylogeny!
A loose end from evolution.
Don't worry, I know that won't convert you fundamentalists. You're beyond (beneath) reason.

It may seem odd. but that's the way it happened. See reference for a fascinating account of many of the details. Evolution is now a proven fact.

Could be. Then it all disappear only in human embreyos and replaced with the ability to think, and talk which other animals don't have, to be fair? Good thinking!

Does ontogeny recapitulate phytogeny or is it the other way around.
Guess it just boils down to which "myth" you choose to believe.
