How is a tadpole and frog different?

Tadpoles and frogs differ primarily in their physical form and life stage. Tadpoles are aquatic, have a streamlined body, a long tail, and breathe through gills, while frogs are terrestrial, possess limbs for jumping, and breathe through lungs. Additionally, tadpoles primarily feed on algae, whereas adult frogs are carnivorous and consume insects and other small animals. This transformation from tadpole to frog is part of their life cycle, known as metamorphosis.
