question 4 (2.5 points)
tetrapods are most closely related to
lungfish
ray - finned fish
Sharks are cartilaginous fish. Most other fish (like ray - finned fish) have bony skeletons. Sharks have a skeleton made of cartilage.
Tetrapods (four - limbed vertebrates) are most closely related to lungfish. Lungfish have some characteristics (like lobed fins and the ability to breathe air in some cases) that are transitional towards the tetrapod body plan. Ray - finned fish have different fin structures and are more distantly related to tetrapods compared to lungfish.
