Step 1
- Amphioxus has all four defining chordate characteristics as an adult- This statement is Correct because Amphioxus is an animal that comes closer than any other to the transition group between invertebrates and vertebrates. Because they are early chordates and have all the chordate characteristics.
- Tunicates have has all four defining chordate characteristics as adults- This statement is incorrect because although tunicates are classified as chordates, only the larval form possesses all four common structures. Adults only maintain pharyngeal slits and lack a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, and a post-anal tail.
- Tunicates are filter feeders, and Amphioxus is a predator- This statement is incorrect because Tunicates and Amphioxus both are marine Filter-feeders with a water-filled, sac-like body structure, and two tubular openings, known as siphons, through which they draw in and expel water.
- Both tunicates and amphioxus have an anus and an opening through which water leaves the body- This statement is Correct and it is self-explanatory.
