Chordates are not typically segmented in the same way as some other animal phyla, like annelids or arthropods. However, they do exhibit a form of segmentation in their development, particularly in the formation of somites, which are blocks of mesodermal tissue that give rise to structures such as vertebrae and muscles. This segmentation is more pronounced in certain chordate subgroups, such as vertebrates. Overall, while chordates have some aspects of segmentation, they do not possess a strictly segmented body plan.
