## Abstract Metamorphic changes in the amphibian olfactory system present many interesting questions concerning the competing possibilities of neuronal respecification versus replacement. For example, are olfactory neurons retained during this transition with their presumed sensitivity to waterborn

## Abstract Quantitative and qualitative changes in acid phosphatase during growth and metamorphosis of the tail of __Xenopus laevis__ have been investigated. Enzyme activity was assayed by two methods using different substrates, pβnitrophenyl phosphate and Ξ²βglycerophosphate. The enzyme was found
Increasing evidence suggests that, in addition to peripheral sensory and sympathetic neurons, the enteric neurons are also under the control of neurotrophins. Recently, neurotrophin receptors have been detected in the developing and adult mammalian enteric nervous system (ENS). Nevertheless, it rema
## Abstract The properties of acid phosphatase from tail tissues of __Xenopus laevis__ tadpoles have been investigated by means of acrylamide gel electrophoresis and biochemical assay with alphaβnaphthyl acid phosphate as substrate. Studies were made on intact tails during development and spontaneo
