Tadpole's volume calculation
The tadpole shape is approximated by a cone and a sphere.Volume of the tail
rb = 0.035cmH = 0.8cm
Volume of the head
rh = 0.3cmVolume of the tadpole
Volume of the skin
To compute the volume of the skin we do the difference between the external and internal sphere/cone. Tskin = 35 * 10-4 cm First the volume for the skin in the head:Volume of the blood
According to a study published in the article "THE BLOOD-VOLUME OF COLD-BLOODED ANIMALS AS DETERMINED BY EXPERIMENTS UPON FROGS AND LIZARDS", the average volume of blood in a frog in cubic centimetre is equal to 4.61% of its masse in grammes. We took the same percentage for a tadpole. For the masse, we estimated a value mg=0.5grammes from an "Amphibian Metamorphosis Assay Integrated Summary Report" where the wet weight of a 51th-stage-tadpole was studied under chemical substances effects.
