Amazing Biological and Physical Features of Frogs That Help Them Survive Both Land and Water Life
1. Moist Skin
Frogs have smooth, moist, and permeable skin that helps them breathe and absorb water directly through it.
2. Powerful Hind Legs
Their long, muscular hind legs allow them to jump great distances and swim efficiently.
3. Webbed Feet
The webbing between their toes helps frogs swim easily and move fast in water.
4. Bulging Eyes
Their large, protruding eyes provide a wide field of vision and excellent night sight.
5. Sticky Tongue
Frogs have a long, sticky tongue that flips out quickly to catch insects and small prey.
6. Camouflage Color
Their skin color often matches the environment, helping them hide from predators.
7. Tympanum (Eardrum)
A circular membrane behind each eye helps them detect sound vibrations in air and water.
8. Dual Life (Amphibian Nature)
Frogs can live both in water and on land — they start life as tadpoles (aquatic) and grow into adults (terrestrial).
9. Lungs and Skin Respiration
Frogs breathe through both lungs and skin, especially when underwater.
10. External Fertilization
Female frogs lay eggs in water, and males rele
ase sperm over them for fertilization.
