deuterostomes development, it must be a member of the __________.
A. Chordata
B. Arthropoda
C. Annelida
D. Mollusca
E. Platyhelminthes - answerA. Chordata - Chordates are deuterostomes that have four
anatomical structures appearing at some time in development: a notochord, a hollow
dorsal nerve cord, pharyngeal clefts, and a muscular post-anal tail.
Notes:
B. Arthropods are protostomes.
C. Annelids lack, for example, a post-anal tail.
D. Molluscs are protostomes.
E. Platyhelminthes (flatworms) lack, for example, pharyngeal gill clefts.
A __________ is a chordate but not a vertebrate.
A. shark
B. frog
C. lancelet
D. sea star
E. lamprey - answerC. lancelet - Lancelets are cephalochordates and, throughout their
life, retain the notochord as the primary support of the appendicular skeleton.
Notes:
A. Sharks have cartilaginous vertebrae.
B. Frogs are amphibians; amphibians are vertebrates.
D. Sea stars are echinoderms.
E. Lampreys have a cartilaginous tube around their notochord; they qualify as
vertebrates.
