What is an example of a chordate?

Answer 1

The Chordata is the animal phylum with which everyone is most familiar, because it includes humans and other vertebrates. Not all chordates are vertebrates, however. All chordates have pharyngeal slits, a dorsal nerve cord, a notochord, and a post-anal tail, even if these are only found in the embryonic form of the animal.

Answer 2

An example of a chordate is a human being. Chordates are animals that have a notochord (a flexible rod-like structure) at some point in their development, and humans are part of this diverse group of organisms.

Answer 3

Phylum Chordata includes fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals.

With some exceptions the chordates are animals with bilaterally symmetric bodies, longitudinally differentiated into head, trunk and tail.

Answer 4

All animals which have a spine, or backbone, are classified in the phylum Chordata. There are three subphylums in Chordata: the first two are invertebrates - Urochordata (tunicates e.g. marine filter feeders such as sea squirts), Cephalachordata (lancelets e.g. sessile burrowing marine animals), while the third is Vertebrata (vertebrates - all mammals, birds, fish, reptiles and amphibians).

Answer 5

There is a wide range of animals in phylum Chordata. Fish, sharks, and frogs are all in phylum Chordata.

Answer 6

You have the question backwards. Chordates have noto-cords, a hollow tube down the dorsal surface starting from the anterior end.

Answer 7

A Chordate is a living being that has a spinal cord. A few examples of this would be a dog, cat, fish, and ferret.

Answer 8

Frogs, snakes, fish, and many, many other animals are chordates.

Answer 9

Any type of fish reptile mammal bird amphibians are part of the chordate phylum.
