Best answer

Answer: 1. Cartilaginous endoskeleton - Chondrichthyes

Class Chondrichthyes (sharks, rays) always has a cartilaginous endoskeleton.

  • 2: Not all mammals are viviparous; the platypus and echidna lay eggs.
  • 3: Jaws are not found in all chordates; Agnatha (jawless fishes) lack them.
  • 4: Most reptiles have a 3-chambered heart, but crocodiles have a 4-chambered heart, so it is not always true.
