Tadpole's volume calculation
The tadpole shape is approximated by a cone and a sphere.![tadpole volume computation](https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2012/7/78/Tad51.png)
Volume of the tail
rb = 0.035cmH = 0.8cm

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:![head skin volume computation](https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2012/6/60/Vblo.png)

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 mesured mg=1mg for a wet-weighed 5-days tadpole.

Volume of the receptor
We considered the receptor as any tissue which can recept the auxin via the blood except the skin.![tail volume computation](https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2012/7/7f/Ta11.png)
