What is norochord?
The notochord is a flexible rod-like structure found in embryos of chordate animals, including humans. It provides support and helps define the axis of the body. In many vertebrates, the notochord develops into part of the spinal column.
All chordates are vertebrates?
Chordates include the vertebrates, or animals with backbones. However, not all chordates are vertebrates. Some chordates, such as the cephalochordates lack a spinal cord, and hence are not vertebrates. The term chordate does not refer to the spinal cord, but rather the notocord. This is a stiff but flexible rod that runs the length of an animal at some stage of its life, whether embryonic, or adult. Other essential chordate features include gills, tails, and a nerve cord. wish this helps... neon.crescent
