Jamie and I are going to add to the palatoquadrate article by creating the sections: evolution, embryonic development, function, and then by going into the differences in vertebrates. The function of the palatoquadrate will be discussed in a general section, which will also define what the palatoquadrate is and what it is made of. The evolution section will discuss how the palatoquadrate has formed over time. Embryonic development will be about how the palatoquadrate forms in vertebrates of the present time. The different vertebrates will each have their own section to display different functions and growth of the palatoquadrate.
