The color of the frogs dorsal side is not consistent. This is because many different frogs are many different colors.
The dorsal of a leopard frog is green with black spots. Frogs come in lots of colors so you need to specify which frog you have in mind.
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.
The Dorsal
In the dorsal root ganglia. The dorsal root ganglia is located in the dorsal root. The cells carry sensory signals to the spinal cord.
Dorsal is situated on the upper part and at the rear of a body, lateral is situated at the side
Dorsal root ganglion
The dorsal side is the top portion of the frog.
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 dorsal view of a common frog is what you would see when looking down on the frog from above. The dorsal view typically includes the frog's back, head, eyes, and toes.
The dorsal of the frog absorbs heat energy and the ventral of the frog cools all the heat that the dorsal takes in. == ==
Dorsal means on or near the back of the body.
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 dorsal side has a more dark color so that it is able to blend in with moss or lily pads in the water. Where as the ventral side is a more yellow color so it blend with plants underneath the water and out of preys sight.
dorsal and ventral view
Ventral is the term relating to the belly or abdomen of the frog.
The white-lipped Tree Frog (Litoria infrafrenata) reaches 4 inches, maximum 5 inches and has a light green tot brown dorsal colour and a whitish underside.
Ventral relates to the belly or abdomen of the frog.
The dorsal blend in with the water, and the ventral blends in with the bottom surface. So they can tell if its dangerous if it is brightly colored. ( bright red frog= poisonous and non-tasty frog) :D - < I'm not sure if this right...I just guess..> P.S. This is exactly the same question on my science worksheet!
