What is a sea squirt off spring?
Sea squirts are more scientifically known as tunicates. The larval form of most tunicates is free-swimming and resembles a tadpole.
In what ways are tunicates and lancelts similar to humans?
Tunicates and lancelets are common to humans in that all of them are chordates. That is they share certain charcteristics at some point in their lives. Four traits that they all share are notochord, hollow dorsal nerve chord, post anal tail, and pharyngeal gill slits. Some of these characteristics disappear during development, others are retained.

What animals eat Predatory Tunicates?
the hawsbill and leatherback sea turtle eats tunicates
What Tunicates and lancelets are two subphyla of animals classified as what?
chordates
Do tunicates and lanceletes have back bones?
No. They are both chordates, which means during embryonic development they have a notochord, the same as vertebrates. This does not persist in tunicates, but it does in lancelets (adults still have a notochord). Neither tunicates or lancelets have a backbone.
What is scientific name of tunicates?
The scientific name for tunicates is Phylum Chordata, Subphylum Tunicata.
What is is the difference between tunicates and lancelets?
Tunicates and lancelets are invertebrates, while the other chordates are vertebrates.During their embryonic stage they have a flexible cord that supports their bodies which disappears in the adult stage. Some of these develop bones surrounding the cord in the adult stage rather than have it disappear.
What are some resources from the ocean floor?
fish, mollusks, worms, crustaceans, echinoderms, sponges, tunicates and other cnidarians
