A kangaroo is classified in the phylum Chordata because it possesses a notochord, which is a flexible rod-like structure that provides support during embryonic development. Additionally, kangaroos have a dorsal nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a post-anal tail at some point in their development, all of which are defining characteristics of animals within the phylum Chordata.
Echinoderms are not classified in phylum Chordata. They belong to their own phylum called Echinodermata. Chordates, on the other hand, are characterized by the presence of a notochord, which echinoderms lack.

Sea squirts are classified in the same phylum (Chordata) as humans.
Echinoderms are not classified in phylum Chordata. They belong to their own phylum called Echinodermata. Chordates, on the other hand, are characterized by the presence of a notochord, which echinoderms lack.
Chordata is a phylum, vertabrate (vertabrata) is a sub-phylum. Although this is not well-known, the phylum chordata contains some (very few) invertabrates (animals without a backbone) such as sea squirts. So the phylum chordata is futher classified into 2 sub-phyla, vertabrata (vertabrates) and invertabrata (invertabrates).
Yes, vertebrates are classified under the phylum Chordata. This phylum includes animals with a notochord, a hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a post-anal tail at some point in their life cycle. Vertebrates are characterized by having a backbone or spinal column.
Yes, fish are classified under the phylum Chordata because they possess a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a post-anal tail during some stage of their life cycle.
