urochord
Urochord, also known as tunicate, refers to a marine invertebrate animal, usually sessile (non-moving), that is a member of the sub-phylum urochordate. These creatures are characterized by a tough, outer covering (tunic), a flexible rod-like notochord (primitive backbone) during some stage in their life, and a sack-like body structure. They filter feed by straining seawater through their internal gills and are known for their ability to regenerate body parts.
