1. (b) Vertebral column is present in the vertebrates
only. It is not present in all the chordates.
2. (d) Chordates show the presence of nerve cord,
Notochord and pharyngeal gill slits.
3. (d) Echinodermata and all chordates are
deuterostome and enterocoelous.
4. (d) Because they are belong to the class
mammalia.
5. (d) In scaliodon, olfactory organs are
characteristically large in elasmobranchs
correlated with a highly developed sense of
smell for perception of chemical substances
dissolved in water.
6. (b) Cyclostomata is a class of group Agnatha.
Where paired appendages girdles and jaw are
absent. Some workers include even the
protochordates in Agnatha.
7. (a) Placoid scale has a disc like basal plate. It
resembles a tooth. These scales are found in
cartilagenous fishes (chondricthyes).
8. (b) Icthyophis is a limbless amphibian showing
parental care. It has no tongue.
9. (d) In crocodilia, includes crocodiles, gharials and
alligators. These are the largest living fresh
water reptiles.
11. (b) In birds, forelimbs are modified as wings for
flying. Therefore, the forelimb is not found in
birds.
12. (d) Ornithorynchus or duck bill platypus is an egg
laying mammal.
13. (d) Annelids are the first group of animals to show
true coelom in the animal kingdom. Coelom is
formed by the splitting of the mesoderm. Hence
it is called schizocoelic coelom.
14. (b) Deuterostomes includes Echinodermata,
Hemichordata and chordata. The mouth is
derived away from the blastopore.
