Identify the incorrect statement regarding cyclostomes:

1. Lampreys have direct development, but Hagfishes go through a larval stage followed by metamorphosis into a juvenile form.
2. Unlike jawed vertebrates, which have three semicircular canals in each inner ear, lampreys have only two and hagfishes just one.

4. Both hagfishes and lampreys have a single gonad.
