What is the Difference between a vertebrate and a notochord?
Tands15
A notochord is a long, solid chord of solid protein.
A vertebrate is a creature that has a vertebra column. A vertebra is short, solid segment of bone. A series of vertebra make a vertebra column or a back bone.
Both serve the same function but the back bone is a more complex version.

What is vertebrate zoology?
Within the Animal Kingdom there are many phyla, or categories of animals. One such category is chordata. All chordates have, at some time in their development, a notochord. For some animals this notocord later develops into a spinal column Vertebrates are members of the subphylum vertebrata: chordates with backbones or spinal columns. Vertebrate zoology is the study of non-human vertebrates.

What is the most ancient group of vertebrate's?
fish The vertebrates have a nebulous starting point. There are some chordates that have more of a notochord than a true vertebrate column. Some taxicologists are more comfortable saying that a Coelacanth has a notochord rather than a vertebrate column when clearly the vertebrate are present in this animal. So its is a matter of your own definition. One could say 'at a stretch' that the hagfish and lamprey are the most ancient vertebrates.
