Mr. below are characteristics that serve as evidence of shared ancestry between fish and reptiles select the option that applies only to embryos rather than adults would the answer be hatched from, and lay eggs slits that turn into gills, spines, and tails, or scales as a form of skin

The option that applies only to embryos rather than adults would be "slits that turn into gills, spines, and tails." Embryos of both fish and reptiles have these characteristics, but they are not present in adults of both groups. The option "hatched from, and lay eggs" applies to the reproductive behavior of both fish and reptiles, while the option "scales as a form of skin" applies to the presence of scales in adult fish and reptiles.
