MORPHOLOGICAL STUDY OF THE TONGUE OF BUDGERIGAR (Melopsittacus undulatus)
The tongue of the budgerigar was analyzed macroscopically and by scanning electron microscopy with conventional and NaoH maceration techniques. Macroscopic analysis showed a median sulcus along the medium to the posterior regions. Transverse sulcus were also observed. The dorsum of the tongue showed...
