Answer: A. color

A mineral can be defined as an inorganic compound that is obtained by digging up the earth crust. It is available in the ore deposits. The physical characteristics and chemical composition of the mineral can be used for the identification of the mineral.

Color, streak, luster and cleavage are physical characteristics of the mineral which can be useful for identification. Streak is a test in which the mineral is scratched to identify it's internal color for identification, luster means how a mineral shows reflection against the light, cleavage is the breaking of the mineral into parts, it tells the internal composition of the mineral.

Color is the least reliable method for identifying a mineral because two or more minerals can have the same color.

Answer:

Explanation:

Vertebrates are members of the kingdom Animalia and the phylum Chordata ((Figure)). Recall that animals that possess bilateral symmetry can be divided into two groups—protostomes and deuterostomes—based on their patterns of embryonic development. The deuterostomes, whose name translates as “second mouth,” consist of two major phyla: Echinodermata and Chordata. Echinoderms are invertebrate marine animals that have pentaradial symmetry and a spiny body covering, a group that includes sea stars, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers. The most conspicuous and familiar members of Chordata are vertebrates, but this phylum also includes two groups of invertebrate chordates.

Deuterostome phylogeny. All chordates are deuterostomes possessing a notochord at some stage of their life
