∙ 15y agoThe eyes and nose (nares) of a frog are located on the top of the head so that the frog can sit or float in water and see and breathe. Frogs need to spend alot of time in water as their skin in permiable and they need to replace the water lost through their skin. They also breed and hide in water.

Can a snake have 4 heart chambers?
Pretty much for the same reasons as us - it's simply nature. Dinosaurs also had a four-chambered heart. Unlike mammals, crocodile's right ventricle pumps blood throughout the body. Such a heart perfectly separates blood going to the lungs from that going to the body, which is a requirement for the high blood flow rates and high metabolic rates characteristic of warm-bloodedness. However, living crocodiles are cold-blooded, so it didn't make sense for them to have a warmblooded heart - a mystery!
How do frogs get air into their lungs?
When air enters into the mouth through the internal nostrils. Air is drawn in by lowering of the floor of the mouth and then the floor is raised, causing the air to be forced out of the mouth. Valves in the external nostrils prevent the air from being forced back outside, and it is forced into the lungs.Frogs breathe by gulping air into their mouth and then closing their mouth and nares (nostrils). They then lift up their lower jaw and tongue to make the space inside their mouth very small. This increases the pressure of the air inside their mouth and the air moves from the mouth (high pressure) to the lungs (low pressure). Air always moves from areas of high to low pressure.Breathing out is passive (i.e. doesn't require energy) and the the high elasticity of the frogs body wall helps push the air out of the body.Read more in the related link.

How do crocodiles eyes work?
Crocodiles have a unique set of eyes that are adapted for hunting in both water and on land. They have a nictitating membrane that acts as a protective contact lens, allowing them to see clearly underwater. Their eyes have a high number of light-detecting cells called rods, which help them see well in low light conditions. Additionally, crocodiles have excellent night vision due to a layer of cells behind their retinas that reflect light and improve their vision at night.
