The core of the project is a two-semester senior design class where undergraduate students from UAH and other partners form competitive teams to develop system concepts of interest to NASA and the aerospace community.
Frogs and toads do not make their own body heat. Their body temperature depends on the temperature of their environment--that is, their inside temperature changes when the outside temperature changes.rogs and toads do not make their own body heat.

To assess whether cane toad eggs provide significant nutrition for conspecific tadpole growth and development, we reared toad tadpoles at ambient temperatures using 1000 ml plastic containers filled with 750 ml bore water in a randomized block design experiment.1) Toxin transfer. The amount and diversity of toxins (bufadienolides) decrease from the egg stage through larval development in cane toads, such that late-stage tadpoles and metamorphs have less effective chemical defences than earlier tadpoles or (especially) eggs (Hayes et al. 2009).
