Solution
- Notochord, cephalisation, dorsal nerve cord and radial symmetry.
- Notochord, cephalisation and dorsal nerve cord are the characteristic features of chordates. The radial symmetry is not a characteristic feature of chordate. It is the feature of cnidarian and adult echinoderms. Hence it does not belong to the group.
