Question

Frogs can live both on land and in water, name the adaptations seen in these animals.

Answer 1

Hint: Amphibians replaced gills with another respiratory organ, the lungs, in order to live on land. Other adaptations present include: skin that prevents loss of water, eyelids which allow adapting to vision outside the water.

Complete Answer:

Below are some adaptations required for frogs to live both on land and in water.

1) They are poikilotherms or cold blooded meaning that their body temperatures change with that of the environment. 

2) A frog has both lungs as well as skin for breathing.

3) They have the presence of webbed feet, which help them to swim.

4) There are long and strong hind limbs for leaping and catching their prey.

5) The eyes and nose of a frog are on top of its head, which allows them to breathe and see when most of its body is under the water.

Note: Frogs take the moisture into their body through their skin instead of drinking water. Frogs can breathe through their nostrils as well while also absorbing about half the air they need through their skin.
