In tadpoles of the North American bullfrog, Rana catesbeiana, spontaneous and thyroid hormone (T 3 )-induced metamorphosis is characterized by regression of the tail, which is preceded by a decrease in total protein synthesis in tail tissues. We have demonstrated that thyroid hormone treatment of a
## Abstract We tested the hypothesis that respiratory development would be retarded in tadpoles reared in aquaria in which a barrier prevented access to the airβwater interface. To test this hypothesis, we examined swimming behavior and respiration in intact tadpoles and gill and lung respiratory a
## Abstract Bullfrog tadpoles subjected to the daily disturbance of water replacement demonstrated differences in the rates of growth and metamorphosis and in fatbody weights which depended on the time of day when water replacement occurred. Early daily disturbances stimulated larval growth whereas
