Carol...I had heard about the "gill slits" in high school Biology and looked it up after I mentioned it on FB. I see there is now a big "debate" between Creationist and Darwinism as to whether they are really gill slits or not. As in most of those "is...is not" arguments, I doubt exactly what that gill like "apparatus" on embryos is will ever be agreed upon. :D
@Anna...Yes, I looked up "do human fetus's have gills" to try to recall what us humanoids have in the womb. We have to have something to breathe in that fluid. It's such an interesting reality that all of us were at some point living in fluid.
Hmm...gills and fish bring to mind a poem I wrote some years back. It is entitled In a FishBowl.
