It is called a spine. That actually makes the animal a vertebrate.
I believe it's a spine or backbone.
A flexible rod that supports a chordate's back is called a notochord. It is a key feature of chordates during their embryonic development and provides structural support and shape. In many vertebrates, the notochord is replaced by the vertebral column (spine) during development, but it still plays a crucial role in the development of the nervous system.
Yes, the nerve cord is part of the chordate anatomy, but it is not a flexible rod that supports the back; rather, it is the notochord that serves as a flexible rod providing support. The notochord is a key characteristic of chordates during their development, offering structural support and serving as a precursor to the vertebral column in vertebrates. The nerve cord, which develops into the spinal cord, runs alongside the notochord and is responsible for transmitting nerve signals.
No, a butterfly is a chordate. Chordates are animals that have a notochord, which is a flexible rod-like structure that supports the body. Insects, like butterflies, belong to the phylum Arthropoda.
Is a flexible, supporting structure
Wallabies belong to the phylum Chordata, which includes all animals with a notochord (a flexible rod that provides support along the back) at some stage of their development.
Notochord- a flexible rod that supports a chordates back.notochord is a stuff rod of conective tissue.it is present in the mid_dorsal region of the embryo.in the lower chordates .the notochord is present throughout of life but in vertebrates .the vertebral column or bacjbone replaces it.
Chordata is the phylum that possesses members with a notochord, which is a flexible rod-like structure that provides support. This phylum includes animals such as mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.
Penguins belong to the phylum Chordata, which includes animals with a notochord (a flexible rod-like structure) at some stage of their development.
A notochord. The notochord is a flexible, rod-shaped body found in embryos of all chordates. It is composed of cells derived from the mesoderm and defines the primitive axis of the embryo.
microtubules
No a rod is for water. Animals are not water.
