Invertebrate chordates use what to filter food out of water?

  • Correct Answer: gills
  • nose
  • pores
  • tails

Explanation: Invertebrate chordates use their gills to filter food out of water, not to absorb oxygen. In the early evolution of fish, there was a switch to using gills to absorb oxygen instead of to filter food. Gills consist of many thin, folded tissues that provide a large surface area for oxygen uptake. With more oxygen absorbed by the gills, fish could become much larger and more active.
