3. postanal tail notochord hollow dorsal nerve cord pharyngeal pouches becomes brain & spinal cord becomes vertebrae becomes gills or Eustachian tube becomes tail or tailbone CHARACTERISTICS: NOTOCHORD PHARYNGEAL POUCHES POST ANAL TAIL DORSAL NERVE CORD

4. VERTEBRATE CHARACTERISTICS: ALL CHORDATE CHARACTERISTICS PLUS: Bones or cartilage around a dorsal nerve cord Cranium (skull) to protect brain Endoskeleton made of bone or cartilage Closed circulatory system fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals

5. Notochord: flexible rod Helps organize developing cells in embryo Replaced by spinal cord in most vertebrates Becomes the vertebrae

7. Become gills in some vertebrates Become back of throat and inner ears in humans

9. Pharyngeal arches appear during 4 th week Tail disappears at approximately 8 weeks
