Which of these is NOT characteristic of chordates?

Biology
1 answer:
Leya [2.2K]3 years ago
8 0
The option which is not a characteristic of chordates is chloroplasts in their cells.
Chordates do have a dorsal supporting rod (vertebrates are types of chordates - they have a spine), a dorsal hollow nerve cord (within the spine), and pharyngeal pouches. However, they do not have chloroplasts, because that is a characteristic of photoautothropic eukaryotes, which chordates certainly are not.
