How do Most adult amphibians obtain oxygen?

Answer 1

Most adult amphibians use a combination of lungs and gas exchange through the skin to breathe. In order for gas exchange to occur through the skin, the amphibian's skin must be moist. Some amphibians use gills or a special lining of the mouth to obtain oxygen.

Answer 2

Frogs obtain oxygen three different ways:

1) from their lungs

2) through the lining of their mouth cavity

3) through their skin

Answer 3

Frogs have very special skin, they drink and breathe through it. Instead they absorb most of the moisture they need through their skin. frogs get oxygen through their skin when it's moist, they need to take care of their skin or they might suffocate. you'll find frogs that are slimy. This is because the frog skin secretes a mucus that helps keep it moist. Even with the slimy skin, these frogs need to stay near water. Toads on the other hand have tougher skin that doesn't dry out as fast, so they can live farther from water than most frogs.

Answer 4

Most adult amphibians obtain oxygen via their lungs. Only juveniles need to use gills.

Answer 5

The skin on amphibians is very thin, and it allows water to go through it. The water carries oxygen with it, and into the amphibian's body.
