During metamorphosis the gills and fins are lost, the gill slits close, there is a modification of skin for terrestrial existence, and lungs develop. Question: What do you notice about the development of the legs in salamander larvae. Which legs develop first? Is this different from the anuran larvae? (please answer both parts)
