## Abstract In bullfrog (__Rana catesbeiana__) tadpoles, the lung begins to function at an advanced stage of metamorphosis. As a preliminary step for investigation of the mechanisms involved in lung maturation, pulmonary surfactant was prepared from tadpoles at advanced stages of metamorphosis and
This study describes the development of different spontaneous and elicited behaviors of frogs and their relationship to morphological, physiological, and ecological changes of metamorphosis. Tadpoles were studied at all stages of development from Stage XVIII, the onset of metamorphosis, to Stage XXV
Vascular adrenergic sensitivity to exogenous catecholamines was examined in tadpoles of the American bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana), ranging from stage III to XIV. Central arterial blood pressure was measured in decerebrate bullfrog tadpoles to determine a reasonable initial infusion pressure. Solution
