∙ 15y ago
A vertebrate has a spinal cord/bones, an invertebrate has a gelatinous body, a shell, a shell like body, or protective muscles. the quick answer is a vertebrate has a backbone and a invertebrate has no backbone. the hardest part about remembering is tha vertebrate and invertebrate sound so similar. :)
