Answer 1

Answer:

Aad me on braiest pleass..

Explanation:

The characteristic features of the phylum Chordate 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. But in cephelochordates, notochord persists throughout life as such and in urochordates, notochord is present only in larval stages and absent in adults. Thus, it can be said that all vertebrates are chordates but all chordates are not vertebrates.

Answer 2

Answer:

Vertebrates include amphibians, reptiles, mammals, and birds, as well as the jawless fishes, bony fishes, sharks, and rays. More than 64,000 species of vertebrates have been described, but the extant vertebrate species represent only a small portion of all the vertebrates that have existed.
