Due to its shorter reproductive time, the tropicalis species has recently supplanted the laevis species of a genus in this class.
Ross Harrison's experiments with one member of this class lent experimental support to the concept of the morphogenetic field. The juvenile form of another member of this class is commonly matured with Steinberg's solution. Shortly after fertilization, the eggs of several members of this class display a grey crescent due to cortical rotation, which was first observed in its Rana genus. The standard reference for the developmental stages of that organism in this class is a book of Nieuwkoop and Faber. That organism was the subject of Spemann and Mangold's organizer experiment. Due to its shorter reproductive time, the tropicalis species has recently supplanted the laevis species of a genus in this class. For 10 points, identify this class that includes the model organisms Ambystoma mexicanum, also known as the axolotl, and Xenopus laevis, also known as the African clawed frog.
