what other animals belong to the amphibians than frogand salamanders?

The modern amphibians (a natural group called Lissamphibia) comprise urodeles (salamanders), anures (frogs and toads) and caecilians or apodes. These are intriguing amphibians because they're highly adapted to life underground or in water, and few people know them or have ever seen them in the wild, although they're fairly common in all the world. \nThe name "caecilia" means "blind", and indeed their eyes are covered by the skin and sometimes by bone too, although they can perceive light and dark. \nI like them, if only because I share my first name with them. \nHere's a picture of one showing their exclusive sensory tentacle:\nhttp://www4.nau.edu/bilby/photo_illustration_page/images_photo_page/Caecilian.jpg

most amphibians have legs so they can walk on land. there arent usually amphibians that dont have legs...

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.

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 =)

axolotl they are salamanders that have these weird looking gills and live under water.  Also they are somewhat transparent

There are some 5,000 species of frogs and toads, so you'll have to be a bit more specific about which one you need the name for.

Non-mammalian animals include things like arthropods, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish and any other animals that are not mammals, there is no real collective term for them other than Non-Mammalian, but they have their own groupings of class depending on which organsim you are talking about.\n\nhope this helps!

Yes; their scientific name is Mesocricetus auratus and they belong to family Cricetidae.\n\n--------------\nEDIT: and to think that a week ago I answered this seriously...

i think animalia contains all animals - fish, reptiles, mammals, birds and amphibians. dolphins are obviously not bacteria, fungi, insects, etc. if you meant mammalia it is because dolphins -\nbreathe air with lungs, not gills\nbreastfeed their young that do not hatch from eggs\nhave four chambered hearts

Water dog is one of the common names given to any of a variety of different kinds of salamanders and newts. \n\nIt most commonly refers to the genus Necturus, also known as mud puppies.\n\nThey do have remarkable powers of regeneration, often (but not always) able to regrow legs, or a tail.  However, if you cut off their head, they're very much dead afterwards.

A lot of vertebrate metamorphosis study outside of amphibians is aimed at fish. Fish to look up include lamprey and flatfish. Vertebrate metamorphosis tends to be attributed to thyroid hormones. Unfortunately a lot of articles are in journals rather than online. The online stuff tends to be summaries/abstracts.\n\nAn introduction to the whole idea. It starts with invertebrates, but shows how the systems evolve up to vertebrates:\nhttp://www.thyroidmanager.org/Chapter1/index.html\n\nSpecific articles on the subject, mainly focusing on fish:\nhttp://www.sgnis.org/publicat/papers/az37_441.pdf\nhttp://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3746/is_199804/ai_n8798333\nhttp://www.ciwemb.edu/labs/schreiber/index.php\nhttp://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3746/is_199712/ai_n8778286\n\nA scientific journal article that might be useful if you can find it:\nWald, George (1958) The significance of vertebrate metamorphosis.
