A frog's skin is permeable, this means it lets water in and out. Frog skins also let oxygen pass in and carbon dioxide pass out.

How do you know if a frog is a water frog?

Well you can' t see that from the outside. Scientists used to think (many decades ago) frogs with a warty skin lived on land, and frogs with smooth skin lived in the water. Nowadays it is known this is not true; the very warty firebelly toads are now considered frogs and are strictly adapted to water. Some smooth-skinned species, like the Common Spadefoot or Garlic toad is considered to be a frog wich lives terrestrial.
