Frogs breathe using a method called buccal respiration. They draw air into their mouths and then close their nostrils and mouth to push the air into their lungs by contracting the throat muscles. Frogs can also absorb oxygen directly through their moist skin, which allows them to respire while submerged in water. This dual method of respiration enables frogs to adapt to both terrestrial and aquatic environments.

What is breathing through skin by frogs called?
cutaneous gas exchange
Do frogs hiss?
Yes, but they do not have vocal cords. Their breathing organs (while breathing) emit a hissing sound.
What is the frog's nare?
The Nare is a nostril, a frogs nostrils or breathing holes above his mouth.
You have gills for breathing under water you have lungs for breathing on land What are you?
If you have both, you're most likely an amphibian---this category includes frogs, salamanders, etc.
Do frogs have Pharyngeal Pouches?
Yes, frogs have pharyngeal pouches, which are structures in their throat that aid in respiration. These pouches play a role in the exchange of gases during breathing.
How do frogs sleep and where do they sleep?
They sleep on lily pads and breathe out of breathing holes they're ears
Why breathing in frog is called positive pressure breathing?
Breathing in frogs is called positive pressure breathing because they actively push air into their lungs using the floor of their mouth. When a frog closes its nostrils and lowers its mouth, it creates a pressure difference that forces air into the lungs. This method contrasts with negative pressure breathing, which is used by mammals, where the diaphragm creates a vacuum to draw air in. In essence, frogs rely on this positive pressure mechanism to ensure efficient gas exchange.
What prevents frogs to live on land?
Frogs have moist skin that needs to stay damp to breathe through their skin. On land, their skin can dry out quickly, leading to dehydration and difficulty breathing. Additionally, frogs lay their eggs in water, so they need to be near water to reproduce.
Which animals breathe through their gills and lungs?
Frogs are born with gills, but soon, when they get older, they get lungs, and start breathing oxygen.
What are the structural difference in a bony fish and a frog?
Bony fish have scales, fins, and gills for respiration, while frogs have smooth skin, limbs for locomotion, and lungs for breathing. Bony fish also have a swim bladder to control buoyancy, whereas frogs do not have this adaptation.
