D. The bullfrog is a vertebrate because bullfrogs has a skeleton
E. They have an endoskeleton because there skeleton is inside their body not outside
F. Cold blooded because their body temperature need to change with the environment
G. A bullfrog life cycle starts with the female and male frogs mating . The female frogs then goes off to the water and lays lots of eggs into the water. From those eggs tadpoles hatch and start swimming , eating water plants, and growing. They store fat in their tales.and breathe using gills.
Tadpoles then start to sprout legs and arms, tail become shorter lungs form and gills start to disappear. they still live in the water. The next step in the last cycle is that they become froglets.
There almost mature frogs with lungs, it can hop on land and still has some of it tails. The last step of the cycle is then to turn into an adult. The adult frog lives on land and eat insects . It breathes with lungs and have no tail.
H. Frog eats many kinds of food. anything that could fit in their mouth. they also eat their skin.
I. A frog’s heart has three chambers (two atria, and a single ventricle), whereas a human’s has four (two atria, and two ventricles). The atrium of a frog receives deoxygenated blood from the blood vessels that drain the various organs of the body. The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs and skin. Both atria empty into the single ventricle, which is divided into narrow chambers that reduce the mixing of the two bloods. The ventricle contracts, oxygenated blood from the left atrium is sent into the carotid arteries, thus taking blood to the head (and brain). Then, the deoxygenated blood from the right atrium is sent to the pulmocutaneous arteries, therefore taking blood to the skin and

    The myocardium, commonly referred to as the heart, acts as a pump for transporting blood around the body via a collective system, known as the cardiovascular system. This system has various components; blood vessels; mainly arteries, veins and capillaries. The cardiovascular system has four main functions within the body. Firstly to transport dissolved oxygen, hormones, nutrients, salts, enzymes and urea to cells located around various places within the body, whilst at the same time eliminating any waste products such as carbon dioxide and water. Secondly, to protect the body from infection and blood loss. Thirdly, to distribute heat around the body to enable a healthy temperature of 37oc and finally to aid the body to maintain fluid balance. This ‘human pump’ can be regarded as two pumps. The fist sized organ contains two muscular chambers; the upper chamber; the atrium and the lower; the ventricle. The right side of the heart pumps deoxygenated blood from the veins to the lungs for oxygenation, whilst the left side pumps oxygenated blood from the lungs to the body. It is important to note that the two sides are separated by a septum. The blood flows through the heart twice within one cycle, this is known as ‘double circulation’.…

    Blood enters the heart through the Superior Vena Cava which is the large vein at the top of the heart, and the Inferior Vena Cava, which is the large vein at the bottom of the heart. Blood flows into the right atrium, passes through the tricuspid valve, and makes its way into the right ventricle. It then moves through the pulmonic valve, into the pulmonary artery to the lungs.” After picking up oxygen in the lungs, the blood moves out of the lungs into the pulmonary vein, into the left atrium, through the mitral valve, and into the left ventricle that pushes blood to the body through the aortic valve. Once blood leaves the heart it is in the aorta where it flows to various parts of the body” (Whitlock, J. 2017).…

    Describe the general external anatomy of the frog. The body of a frog can be divided into a head, which extends posteriorly to the shoulder region, and a trunk. Notice that a distinct neck is absent. This is a retention of a characteristic of fishes, for which an independent motion of the head and trunk would be disadvantageous during swimming. The appendages, forearms and hind legs, allow the frog to move about on land. The large webbed hind feet aid in swimming.…

    Frogs and other amphibians are important for several reasons. One reason is that they are an integral part of the food chain, as they serve as both predator and prey (What Do Frogs). Without them, the ecosystems they live in would suffer. For example, frogs feed on pests, such as mice or insects, which infest human homes and consume crops. Without frogs and toads to feed on them, the populations of such pests would grow rapidly. Many of their prey even spread diseases, like mosquitos which spread malaria, so frogs play a direct role in keeping humans healthy. Tadpoles, juvenile frogs and toads, clean waterways by feeding on algae, which cuts down on costs that would otherwise be needed for water filtration (Why We Must). Additionally, frogs also serve as prey for a variety of organisms, from predatory birds, fish, and snakes, to larger insects, other frogs, humans, and more. If frogs die out, all of their predators would have to cope with a lack of food sources as well (What Do Frogs). Furthermore, because amphibians live in both water and land, they play key roles in transferring nutrients between the two. Without them, all organisms in their environments would suffer. Food webs such as this are simply too interconnected for the loss of one creature not to affect the rest, especially not creatures as vital as amphibians (Amphibian…
