Question
Name the phylum whose members possess notochord.
Answer
The phylum whose members possess a notochord is the Phylum Chordata.
The notochord is a flexible rod-like structure that provides structural support and serves as a precursor to the vertebral column (backbone) in vertebrate animals. Chordates include a wide range of organisms, from fish and amphibians to reptiles, birds, and mammals, all of which exhibit some form of notochord during their embryonic development.
