The Phylum Chordata includes the well-known vertebrates (fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals). The remaining chordates are the tunicates (Urochordata), lancelets (Cephalochordata), and, possibly, some odd extinct groups.
Similarly, you may ask, are frogs chordates?
Next, frogs are chordates. The characteristic of chordates are notochord, a dorsal nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, an endostyle, and a post-anal tail, for some part of their life. Other chordates include fish, snakes, and us. Frogs differ from salamanders and caecillians because they have 4 limbs and no long tail.
People also ask, are echinoderms chordates?
Echinoderms are marine invertebrates. They include sea stars, sand dollars, and feather stars. Chordates include vertebrates and invertebrates that have a notochord. Chordates also have a post-anal tail, dorsal hollow nerve cord, and pharyngeal slits.
Radial symmetry occurs when the parts of an animal or object are arranged around a central axis, and if they are divided through that axis they create equal parts on either side. Chordates, including humans, are also all classified as having bilateral symmetry and can be divided into a left and right side.
