What is structure and function of the body covering of amphibians?

Answer 1

It is covered in skin. This skin excretes a mucous layer which keeps it moist and also acts in protecting the animal from pollutants. Some amphibians can also breathe through their skin, although most have lungs for breathing.
The skin is glandular and contains both mucous and poison glands but lacks external structures such as scales, feathers, or hair, characteristic of other groups of tetrapods.
Amphibians are characterised by having a body covering of moist skin.

Answer 2

Skin is the body covering of amphibians. It is made up of the epidermis and the dermis. Mucus, other glands and a pigment layer are present in the dermis. The epidermis is stratified. The skin is permeable which means that it allows oxygen and water to pass. Some amphibians are able to peform up to 50% respiration through their skin. Their skin also makes them more susceptible to changes in their local ecosystem like pollutants.
