Insufficient production of thyroxine in the tadpoles lead to their incomplete development.
Explanation:
- Tadpole, also known as pollwog is a larval stage in the life cycle of Amphibians especially in frogs and toads.
- In Tadpole stage, the young one doesn't show any resemblance with the adult.
- It is the second stage of the life cycle.
- Tadpoles have big head with long tails and gills for breathing under water.
- The Pituitary glands and the thyroid glands play a main role in the metamorphosis of frog.
- The thyroid gland secretes the hormone callled thyroxine which helps in the change of tadpole into frog.
- The low level of thyroxine or the absence of thyroxine leads to the stunt growth of the organism.
