13. Note: The BCOR 12 tutoring room (Sunday night from 7:30-9pm) has been changed to L/L A101 (not A161). Darlene will NOT be available this Sunday. HW is due this Sunday night at 11:59 p.m., as usual.

14. Why are humans considered members of the chordates when we have no notochord, pharyngeal slits, or muscular tail? A.Our mammalian ancestors show some of these traits. B.Other similar traits appear in humans. C.Our nerve cord has replaced the notochord. D.Embryonic humans have these traits. E.More than one of the above. Clicker Question
