The stingray is a vertebrate, scientifically classified in the phylum Chordata. Its skeleton is made of cartilage instead of bone, but it still has a vertebrate skeleton. AND IT IS A CHORDATEStingrays are vertebrates
A human is a vertebrate because they have a backbone made of vertebrae.
yes if it has a spine, it doesn't matter if it is made of cartilage
Yes, cartilaginous fish, such as sharks and rays, are vertebrates because they possess a bony internal skeleton known as cartilage. This skeleton provides support and structure for their bodies, and they also have a backbone, which is a defining characteristic of vertebrates.
An invertebrate is an animal that doesn't have a backbone. A vertebrate is an animal that has a backbone. Since a flamingo has a backbone, (like all birds) it is a vertebrate.it is vertebrate
Gibbons have a backbone, which is made up of vertebrae.
Invertebrate: no backbone Vertebrate: have a backbone A swan has a backbone, therefore is a vertebrate.
Verterbrate! They have a backbone!
A peacock is a vertebrate because it has a backbone or spine, which is a defining characteristic of vertebrate animals. Vertebrates are animals with an internal skeleton that includes a backbone made of individual bones called vertebrae.
A hamster is a vertebrate as it has a backbone. An invertebrate is something without a backbone such as an insect
An elephant is a mammal, and has a backbone, so is a vertebrate.
Vertebrate, but its bones aren't bones they are cartilage. Bones are hard that form the skeletal structure of the body; Cartilages on the other hand, are not as hard and rigid as bones, and most commonly found on fishes, hence, the shark.They are a Vertebrate which means they have a spine.Sharks have a skeleton and that skeleton includes a spine, so they are classed as vertebrates. It's just that the skeleton is made of cartilage rather than bones.Sharks are VERTEBRATES. They do have a backbone and are fish.Sharks belong to the phylum Chordata, and subphylum Vertebrata, and are true vertebrates. Their skeleton is made of cartilage, not bone, but they have a vertebral column. Although the vertebral column is made of cartilage, it is strengthened by tesserae (crystal blocks of calcium salts) which gives it a similar toughness to the bone found in other vertebrates. Tesserae is also found strengthening the sharks jaw and gill arches.it is a vertebrate because it has a backbonesVertebrate- they have a backbone.
