Explanation:

The characteristic features of the phylum, Chordata, include the presence of a notochord and paired pharyngeal gill

slits. In sub-phylum Vertebrata, the notochord present in embryos gets replaced by a cartilaginous or bony vertebral

column in adults. Thus, it can be said that all vertebrates are chordates but all chordates are not vertebrates.
