The four specific characteristics of chordates are that they have a notochord, hollow nerve cord near the notochord, pharyngeal pouches, and an endostyle. Many of these characteristics disappear in invertebrate chordates when they reach adulthood. Most vertebrate chordates retain all four features, such as humans.
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.

all vertebrates are chordates because vertebrates are the sub- group of phylum chordates and also it follow one of the important feature of the chordates i.e. presence of notochord whereas all chordates are not vertebrates because some chordates are cephalochordates, urochordates.
One characteristic shared by all chordates is the presence of a notochord, a flexible rod that provides structural support. Humans, being classified under the phylum Chordata, possess a notochord during their embryonic development that eventually develops into the spinal column.
It has a nerve chord running down its back, the defining trait of all chordates.
Yes. All chordates are coelomates.
There isn't a "popular name" for them. The most familiar chordates are the vertebrates, but not all chordates are vertebrates (tunicates, for example, are chordates).
Notochord, Postanal Tail, Pharyngeal Slits, Dorsal hollow nerve cord
nerve cord runs down the back of ALL chordates
All fish are chordates. Chordates are vertebrates that have a hollow dorsal nerve called a notochord. They also have a central nervous system and gill clefts.
a backbone
Well, no they don't... There's a group of chordates called Agnatha which basically contains all the jawless chordates. And there are obviously limbless chordates present, the fishes and the snakes being the most well-known of the examples...
all have four valence electrons
