Among the vertebrates, highest number of species are found in Fishes.
Option (a).
- Vertebrates are animals that have a characteristic backbone and belong to the phylum Chordata. This phylum is further divided into five classes - Fish, Birds, Reptiles, Amphibians and Mammals.
- Out of the five classes mentioned, fish species are found in the most abundant numbers on our planet. In fact, fish constitute more than half of all the vertebrates with almost 21,000 different species.
- Fish have been inhabitants of the earth's waters since almost five million years or more, much more than any other vertebrate. These are 'cold bloodied' animals which means they have no control over their internal body temperatures.
