Chordates are the organisms that have a rod like cartilagenous structure called notochord which gives rise to nervous system. These have pharyngeal gill slits. Nonchordates are the organisms that do not have a notochord. These do not have pharyngeal gill slits.
They are: a. a dorsal, hollow nerve chord b. a notochord c. pharyngeal gill slits d. and a post-anal tail
All chordates have a notochord at some stage in their development, even if it is only at the embryonic stage. The notochord is a flexible structure located in front of the dorsal nerve, which all chordates also have.
for plato users the answer is B. notochrd, nerve cord, pharyngeal gill slits, postanal tail
Chordates are animals that comprise the vertebrates. The three structures that are present during their development are the notochord, a tubular nerve cord and gill slits leading into the pharynx.
Pharyngeal slits are not gill slits. They are filter-feeding organs in non-vertebrates, and are used to strain matter and food from water.
Yes. Perch are in the Phylum Chordata as they exhibit the four major characteristics of a chordate: a notochord, pharyngeal gill slits, a hollow dorsal nerve cord, as well as a post anal tail.
"Jaws are believed to have evolved from the first pair of gill arches of agnathans. The second pair of gill arches became support structures for the jaws." - Biology Laboratory Manual, Ninth Edition Darrel S. Vodopich and Randy MooreSo, sharks have fewer gill slits because the first two pairs became the jaw and the structural support for the jaw.
gill slits
Some
lampreys have 7 gill arches
At some point in their lives, a chordate will have a notochord, a nerve cord that runs down their back, and a slit in the throat area. The phylum name Chordata came from the notochord, a flexible rod that supports the back. They include fishes, amphibians, and reptiles.(I got this answer from my science textbook)Characteristic features of Chordata1. The chordates are one of the most diverse and successful of all animal groups.2. They are found in all regions of the world.3. They have a skeletal rod called Notochord, lying on the dorsal side of the body.4. There is a nerve cord that lies dorsally in the body, directly above the notochord.5. There is presence of Pharyngeal Gill slits atleast at the embryonic stage.6. Digestive system, Circulatory system and Nervous system are well developed.7. Those animals in which the notochord is replaced by a series of vertebrae are called as Vertebrates.8. Amphibia, Reptilia, Aves, and Mammalia are some of the classes of Phylum Chordata.They have bilateral symmetry, are coelomates, complete digestive system, and live in marine, terrestrial, and freshwater.All chordates have pharyngeal slits, which are openings that connect the inside of the throat to the outside of the neck, often used as gills. Their main feature, the notochord, a bundle of nerve fibers which connect the brain with the muscles and organs is present in all chordae's as well.In chordates, four common features appear at some point during development: a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a post-anal tail.
