Characteristic features of Vertebrates..
Answers
As chordates, vertebrates have the same common features: a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a post-anal tail. Vertebrates are further differentiated from chordates by their vertebral column, which forms when their notochord develops into the column of bony vertebrae separated by discs

Vertebrates:-
Vertebrates are advanced chordates. Notochord is present only in the embryonic stages and it is replaced by a cartilagenous/bony vertebral column in the adult forms, while dorsal nerve cord is transformed into brain and spinal cord. Vertebral column and endoskeletal allow to have a completely different distribution of muscle attachement points to be used for movement. Vertebrates are bilateral symmetrical, triploblastic, segmented, have paired gill pouches and a true coelom. There is complex differentiation of body tissues and organs.
Vertebrates are of 6 types:
(i) Cyclostomata
(ii) Pisces
(iii) Amphibia
(iv) Reptilia
(v) Aves
(vi) Mammalia
