This chapter was interesting in many different ways. Shubin taught us the very essence of the human head and of course, the head of fish. It amazed me when I found out the three fundamental parts of the skull and how they merged together as humans grow older. Shubin also talked about the basic principles of the nerves and how they are used to operate the sense of olfactory, facial, trieminal, and etc. These different types of functions have helped me understand more about the human body. The most interesting portion of this chapter was the idea of "our inner shark". It fascinated me when I discovered that the human embryo was very similar to that of a shark. Furthermore, it was even more fascinating when I discovered that humans shared the same structures to those of sharks!
