Solution

The correct option is C
Pteridophyta

An important characteristic of phylum chordata is the presence of notochord during atleast any developmental stage. In dolphin, blue whale, shark, etc., the notochord is replaced by the vertebral column. So they belong to the Sub-phylum Vertebrata and phylum Chordata. Starfish belongs to the phylum echinodermata.
