Discussion
- Frogs are assumed to differ from tadpoles by del_M and {p_Am} only
- Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} and E_Hp only
- amphibiaweb states that tadpoles grow from 1.8 to 7.6 cm in a few weeks, but most tadpoles do overwinter (pers. com. Samuel Pinya Fernandez)
- mod_1: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females
Facts
- Lack tongue and ears, but have a lateral line; Is tetraploid and obligate aquatic (Ref: Wiki)
