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.
Can chordates not have a notochord and still be what they are?
The presence of a notochord at some point in the organism's development is one of the characteristics that distinguishes chordates from other phyla. Without it, I'm not sure if the organism would be considered a chordate.
What is the grouping of animals into phyla based on?
no idea what the anwser is
Biologists classify animals in the animal kingdom into about 35 major groups called?
Phylum
Is phyla and phylum the same?
Phyla is the plural of phylum. One phylum, many phyla.
Does a sea sponge has radial symmetry?
No Animals display different kinds of symmetry. The Radiata include radially symmetrical Ctenophora and Cnidaria (previously Coelenterata). Echinodermata are also largely radially symmetrical. Many other phyla, such as all worm phyla are termed bilaterally symmetrical. Sponges (Porifera) are very primitive and display neither of these types of symmetry. In fact they are usually very irregular and asymmetrical in shape.
What phylums are the horses in?
Phyla Chordates, they are vertebrates.
Are humans part of the chordates section of the animal phyla?
yes we are! Because we have a backbone.
On what basis do taxonomists group animals into phyla?
Taxonomists group animals into phyla based on shared characteristics such as body plan, development, and genetic relationships. Phyla are broad categories that reflect significant differences between groups of organisms.
Which phyla possesses members that have a notochord?
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.

Give an example of asymmetrical animals?
Butterflies. Many animals are more or less symmetrical, with exceptions like crabs and lobsters which have one much larger claw, and some animals like flatfish which have evolved from a symmetrical ancestor in such a way as to favour one side only. Among humans, asymmetrical bodies or features are perceived as uglier, or as deformed, so there may be strong selection pressures to choose a more symmetrical mate. Animals which are super-symmetrical include peacocks, butterflies and patterned mammals such as tigers, leopards and ocelots. The last three are particularly symmetrical in their facial markings, which suggests that it gives a selection advantage.
Do arthropod have coelom?
Yes, phylum Arthropoda is classified as coelomate along with about half of all known phyla, including molluscs, annelids, and chordates.
What are the three kinds of chordates?
Phylum chordata is divided into three sub-phyla: 1) Urochordata or Tunicata 2) Cephalochordata 3) Vertebrata

What are the phyla's?
In no particular order: Chordates Echinodermata Platyhelminthes (Flatworms) Nematodes (Roundworms) Annelids (Segmented Worms) Arthropods Porifera (Sponges) Molluscs (Shells)
