The dorsal of the frog absorbs heat energy and the ventral of the frog cools all the heat that the dorsal takes in. == ==
Page two of the related link gives specific details on the different anatomies of frogs and toads.
Ventral relates to the belly or abdomen of the frog.
dorsal and ventral view
Ventral is the term relating to the belly or abdomen of the frog.
A frog is split into two colors. The top portion (dorsal) is dark so it can avoid predators looking for an easy meal. The bottom portion (ventral) is light so it can find food without being spotted.
It helps them camouflage itself from predators. Although the answer above is true, here is a more informative answer. The bottom of the frog is a lighter color then the top. This is because if the frog is floating on top of the water, and prey or a predator looks up and the frog, the suns glare makes the frog harder to see. Also, there are darker splotches on the bottom so it doesn't show the silhouette for the frog. the top of the frog is darker because when swimming at the bottom of a murky lake, it blends in with the bottom.

The ventral side is lighter than the dorsal.
Dorsal and ventral roots are a feature of spinal nerves only. Cranial nerves do not have dorsal and ventral roots.
The opposite of it's dorsal. The Dorsal is the back, Ventral is the Front. Hence the dorsal fin on ocean-based organisms
A frog is a tailless amphibian, having a short squat body and very long hind legs for leaping. The color of the dorsal surface is green while the ventral surface is off-white.
The ventral side is lighter than the dorsal.
