What is the different between a frogs nostril and a humans nostril?

The frog's inside nostril is on the roof of its mouth while the human's inside nostril is in the back of the mouth. The frog does not breathe through its skin alone. Adult frogs have paired, simple, saclike lungs. As in humans, air enters the body through two nostrils, passes through the windpipe, and is received by the lungs. The mechanism of breathing, however, is different in the frog from that in man. In humans, breathing is aided by the ribs, the diaphragm, and the chest muscles. The frog has no ribs or diaphragm, and its chest muscles are not involved in breathing. A frog may breathe by simply opening its mouth and letting air flow into the windpipe. However, it may also breathe with its mouth closed. The floor of the mouth is lowered, causing the frog's throat to "puff out." When the nostrils open, air enters the enlarged mouth. Then, with nostrils closed, the air in the mouth is forced into the lungs by contraction of the floor of the mouth.
