Solution

The correct option is A A brain is present, dorsal nerve cord, highly developed receptors
Nervous system of organisms in Chordates or Phylum Chordata have:

Brain: central information processing organ;

a dorsal nerve cord; and

highly developed sensory receptors

There is some kind of nervous system in other phylums too except Porifera. Tympanic membrane is present in Chordates. Fused ganglia and ventral nerve cord is seen in arthropods.
