Anthropods do have backbones but arthropods do not. The presence of a backbone implies chordate phylum membership; by contrast, arthropods have their skeletons on the outside (exoskeleton).

Note that the term 'anthropod' should not be confused with 'arthropod' - anthropod is not a phylum nor taxon but is a general term meaning human or humanoid.
