answer about the lifecycle of a frog?

Before we can answer about the lifecycle of a frog you need to provide us with a QUESTION about the lifecycle of a frog.

>>>What happens when the air is pumped into the lungs? \n\nThe lungs expand.\n\n>>Compare the walls of the atria and the ventricle?\n\nThe atria walls are thin and flexible. The ventricle wall is  thick and more rigid.\n\n>>>Describe the movement of the leg muscles as the leg is bent and straightened.\n\nWhen the leg is straightened the muscle on the opposite side of the joint expands. You really do need some detailed digrams or a frog carcasse to explain this properly.\n\n>>>>How is the location of the nares an adaptation to living water? \n\nThe nares are located high on the snout and towards the front. That allows the frog to breathe while keeping almost all of its body beneath the atwer line. \n\n>>>How does the length of the small intestine relate to its function in absorbing digested food?\n\nThe longer the intestine the more time food has to digest and the more thorough digestion will be.\n\n>>>Explain why the frogs hearts has a thicker wall than the atrium.\n\n\nHuh? The atrium is part of the heart. Part of the heart can't have a thicker wall than the heart.

cause that word "long" is relative, tadpoles have seemingly long intestines compared to their tiny bodys, hence it's all wrapped up, and the same intestines are seemingly small compared to the frogs bigger body.

A frog may breathe by simply opening its mouth and letting air flow into the windpipe. However, it may also breathe with its mouth closed. The floor of the mouth is lowered, causing the frog's throat to "puff out." When the nostrils open, air enters the enlarged mouth. Then, with nostrils closed, the air in the mouth is forced into the lungs by contraction of the floor of the mouth.\n\nSo in order for water to enter their nose, the frog must lower the floor of the mouth (and they know how to prevent this, the same as you know that you must not breath through your nose while under water :P).

u didnt really specific the frog, but at least there's two links (there's some more, u could just google it) and hope it helps =)

Frogs hibernate in burrows or under leaves or bury themselves in mud. Their organs contain a high concentration of glucose which prevents the frogs from freezing.

Amphibians as a group are not doing that well on the planet and are one of the most sensitive groups suffering losses during environemntal degradation of the planet, esp their larval stages.  But here are a few cool things about them:\n\ntoads estivate and bury themselves deep in mud with spades on their back feet during peak heat-dry periods of summer\n\nfrogs hibernate-freeze (they are ectotherms) and can stay at bottle of a pond-lake frozen and thaw out in spring thaws.\n\npoison glands on skin and slimey skin helps them have a chance against some predation.\n\ngreat camoflauge on some species skin, esp with dorsal side of frog being greenish and ventral underside being whitish so they blend in their environment. \n\nGreat bright colors on some frogs in rain forest is a warning of their degree of poisonous-ness.....warning to animals to stay away and not eat-touch them.

Hello,\n\nThe frog is an ancient shamanic creature, it has alot of  symbolism assocaited with it. Why? because the frog is a creature that can move from one state to another state. i.e from & to the world of water & also move onto and off the land. So the frog is a creature which is about movement & change, about transformation.\n\n**Thus seeing alot of frogs tends to suggests ALOT of change or transformation or movement going on in your life, usually its assocaited with your inner self. Could be a change in emotions, or a change in relationship/s.\n\n**Water (which the frog moves to and from) is associated with the feelings or emotions, because normally feelings are fluid or flow. The direction of the emotions is the south.\n\n**Land (onto which the frog moves back & forth) is associated with the earth element, solid objects, material objects or in terms of the human body the bones,etc. The direction of earth is the west.\n\nIR

It's called the Mantella frog. Much smaller than the Tomato frog but still are toxic. No specific pressures have been identified, since their competition is limited and they have begun to encroach into human civilization for feeding. The deforestation may shrink their jungle environment, but they are rather flexible in their habitats.\n\nThey are native to Northern Madagascar.

You could have found good answers to this either in your textbook or by a little web searching. \nOh, well...\nThe eggs of frogs have little vitellum, i.e, they're oligolecithal. This means that the entire first cell (zygote) will cleave to originate the individual. It undergoes the usual phases: blastula, gastrula and neurula. \nSee more at the links:\nhttp://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/F/FrogEmbryology.html\nhttp://www.uoguelph.ca/zoology/devobio/dbindex.htm\nhttp://embryology.med.unsw.edu.au/OtherEmb/frog1.htm#Frog%20Life%20Cycle

Funny you should ask that as my pet frog had a fight with my neighbours turtle in 1986, soon after I moved there.\n\nMy frog is called Frank, the neighbours turtle is Tutle.\n\nWe buried them both 6 weeks ago, the vet said it was boredom.\n\nNo shit.

If you mean the biological process, then these are the sites:\nfor definitions look at\nhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&rls=GGLD,GGLD:2004-33,GGLD:en&oi=defmore&defl=en&q=define:metamorphosis\nFor other information\nMetamorphosis in a process in biology by which individual physically develops after birth or hatching involving significant change in form as well as growth and differentiation. It usually accompanies a change of habitat or of habits but may occur without such change. It was once thought that in those cases where the animal's habitat remains unchanged metamorphosis followed a series of forms representing evolutionary ancestors of the species in question (see ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny), but this is no longer thought to be true.\n\nThe first type of metamorphosis is illustrated by many insects and by amphibians. Immature dragonflies are aquatic though the adults are flying insects, and frogs undergo a metamorphosis from an aquatic tadpole to an amphibious adult form. Change of habits is illustrated by the transformation of the free-swimming young of many aquatic invertebrates into sessile adults (eg sea squirts), and the development of butterflies and moths from caterpillars with chewing mouthparts into flying insects with sucking mouthparts.\n\nThe second type is illustrated by many crustacean species, whose young undergo significant physical metamorphosis without changing habits or habitat significantly.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamorphosis_%28biology%29\n\n\nIf you are referring to the work of Kafka by this name, then see these:\nwww.sparknotes.com/lit/metamorph/\nwww.gradesaver.com/classicnotes/titles/metamorphosis/

Question is a little vague......anatomy is structural and function is physiological, so I am not sure what your question really is; is it about anatomy or physiology or both? So RSVP:  Are you asking about the unique physiology or anatomy of amphibians?\n\nThey have many structures in common with the other tetrapod vertebrates, but also have unique structures as amphibians.  Plus each sub-class-type of amphibian (frogs-toads) vs (newts-salamanders) vs caecilians are each different.\n\nAll amphibians have their unique slimey scaleless skin through which they attain most of their oxygen and release their CO2 by diffusion, their 3-chambered heart with 2 atria and 1 ventricle, their external fertilization type reproductive system that has egg-larva-tadpole and adult.  Their respiratory system changes at each stage of development. As tadpoles they use their gills. As they metamorphose to adults,the gills are absorbed and lungs develop to breathe air although they lack a diaphragm and ribs (in most...some amphibians retain larval stage for their whole life...axolotyl). They have kidneys and bladder for excretory system; endoskeleton is bone and has most of the same bones as us, although some are fused (radio-ulna, fibulo-tibia; no skull protecting brain, unusual urostyle bone of pelvis.

Yes a big problem. Ever hear of the "boiling frog"? If you throw a frog into a boiling pot of water it will freak out, try to escape, and eventually die. BUT... if you put a frog into a cool pot of water turn the burner on and let it reach a boil, the frog will fall asleep in the warming water and then die as it boils. Wake up everybody, we're warming up, don't fall asleep! P.S. all you literal jerks out there.. this is a metaphor. Frogs biologically will respond. If they are able to jump from the container when it heats up, they will. Where are we gonna jump?
