To encourage more interest in tadpole biology, we offer this key to the larvae of taxa found in the United States and Canada and are convinced that it will afford the interested person the opportunity to identify tadpoles from their area.
length of P-3 variable, P-2/P-3 1.1-2.0; dorsum of tail muscle definitely banded uniformly throughout length and pattern persists in preserved specimens
P-3 long, P-2/P-3 < 2.0; dorsum of tail muscle uniformly pale or dark, rarely broken with contrasting areas but never banded, even in preserved specimens

 biology - Sphenoid bone
On either side of the dorsum sellæ is a notch for the passage of the abducent nerve, and below the notch a sharp process, the petrosal process, which articulates with the apex of the petrous portion of the temporal bone, and forms the medial boundary of the foramen lacerum.
Behind and lateral to this is the foramen ovale, for the transmission of the mandibular nerve, the accessory meningeal artery, and sometimes the lesser superficial petrosal nerve.
Its medial half forms the anterior boundary of the foramen lacerum, and presents the posterior aperture of the pterygoid canal for the passage of the corresponding nerve and artery.

 Tongue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tongue rolling is thus a commonly explored experiment in highschool and introductory biology courses, as students examine it as a demonstrative concept for inheritance and in the initial understanding of genotypes and phenotypes.
The dorsum (top side) of the tongue can be divided into two parts, a pharyngeal part (posterior third of the tongue), which faces backward to the oropharynx, and an oral part (anterior two-thirds of the tongue) that lies mostly in the mouth.
The tongue is made mainly of skeletal muscle and attached to the hyoid bone, mandible and the styloid processes of the temporal bone.
