Introduction: The evolution of vertebrates from the invertebrates is the most significant event as it helped the vertebrates in locomotion and to spread throughout the planet. The vertebrates have an endoskeleton and multiple Hox genes present in their genome which help them to attain a complex morphology for different body parts.
