  1. ascidian tadpole

    An ascidian tadpole refers to the larval stage of a group of invertebrates known as sea squirts (or Ascidiacea). These tadpoles are free-swimming and possess a simple body structure that includes a head, a tail and a notochord. After a brief period in this stage, they attach to a substrate and undergo metamorphosis to become a sessile adult. This transformation includes the loss of several features, such as the tail and the notochord. The ascidian tadpole is often used as a model organism in evolutionary and developmental biology.
