Although Anura not terrestrial ecosystems, they are, nevertheless, a successful order with many species, well adapted to variety of habitats. Among Osteichthyes Amphibia, most advanced highly evolved living forms, both groups having radiated extensively during their phylogenetic history. considerable economic importance, an understanding teleosteans' systems, as it pertains ability resist infection, is great interest fisheries. adult frog or toad easily maintained organism whose general physiology understood, tadpole represents free-living, accessible larva open experimental manipulation. Xenopus laevis has, arguably, completely investigated system any poikilotherm.
