Abstract

The survival of any species depends on its producing enough viable offspring so that on the average a single reproductive adult is replaced by another during its lifetime. In this regard, the phylum Chordata has utilized two approaches. The first and probably more primitive approach is the production of large numbers of unprotected eggs. This reproductive strategy is used by some species in all chordate classes excluding birds and mammals.
