Which of the following statements accurately highlights a significant difference between the class Osteichthyes and Chondrichthyes?
1. Osteichthyes possess a swim bladder which aids in buoyancy, whereas Chondrichthyes lack a swim bladder and must constantly swim to avoid sinking.
2. Chondrichthyes have an operculum covering their gills, while Osteichthyes do not have any covering over their gill slits.
3. Both Osteichthyes and Chondrichthyes have a skeleton made entirely of bone, making them rigid and durable in aquatic environments.
4. Chondrichthyes exhibit external fertilization whereas Osteichthyes typically display internal fertilization mechanisms.

Which statement correctly differentiates between Urochordates and Cephalochordates?
1. Urochordates retain their notochord throughout their life, whereas Cephalochordates lose their notochord during the larval stage.
2. Cephalochordates, such as lancelets, retain a notochord extending the full length of their body into adulthood, whereas Urochordates, like tunicates, only possess a notochord during their larval stage.
3. Both Urochordates and Cephalochordates exhibit a complex nervous system comparable to that of higher vertebrates.
4. Urochordates are primarily terrestrial, whereas Cephalochordates are exclusively aquatic.
