Chordata
chordates
Chordata is the phylum that possesses members with a notochord, which is a flexible rod-like structure that provides support. This phylum includes animals such as mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.
You did. Your backbone formed on the notochord. There are some fish, the lamprey, I think, that retain a notochord, These animals are chordates but not vertebrates.

Animals with a backbone belong to the phylum Chordata. This phylum includes vertebrates such as fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, which all possess a notochord or backbone at some stage in their development.
The opposite of chordata is invertebrates. Invertebrates are animals without a backbone, whereas chordates are animals with a notochord or vertebral column.
Chordata is the phylum of animals that have a number of features in common, but most notably a notochord (which is called a spinal cord in humans because we have a backbone, a spine, through which it is routed). All the vertebrates (animals with a backbone) are grouped within this phylum. The chordates also include a number of other animals that do not have a backbone, but do have the notochord.
Hagfish are chordates and craniates, but they are not vertebrates. This is because they have a skull and notochord but lack vertebrae.
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.
The White Tiger is apart of the phylum chordata. The white tiger possesses a notochord that stiffens the dorsal or the animals back. Not only does it have a notochord, but it has 3 germ layers, it has bilateral symmetry, and it has a complete digestive system.
