What is a frog called when it still has gills?
A tadpole is how a frog starts out in life. They have gills, a tail, and a mouth. Tadpoles have legs and arms start to show as they grow into a young frog, or froglet. They have gills during each of these phases and their lungs form as they complete the growth cycle and change into an adult frog.
What form of an animal is a tadpole?
A tadpole is a larval frog or salamander. They are hatrched in water because their eggs have no protective shell, theyre just jelly that dries out quickly on land. Later on the tadpoles will lose their gills, grow lungs and start breathing air. They also lose their fishtails and grow legs.

they do not peoples
Are tadpoles fish?
Tadpoles aren't fish, but baby frogs. They grow legs and lose their tails later.
What are the stages in the growth of a frog?
From juvenile to adult, a frog undergoes a process known as metamorphosis.In chronological order, the stages of a frog's life cycle are:eggtadpolefrogletfrogThe frog lays its eggs, which is called frogspawn - a jelly-like substance containing thousands of eggs, which floats on the surface of the water. The eggs hatch into tadpoles, with gills, a spiracle (breathing hole) and fins. At this stage, it eats only waterweeds and aquatic vegetation.Gradually, metamorphosis occurs, with the back legs growing first, followed by the front legs. Lungs take over the function of the gills, as pulmonary breathing begins. When the tadpole has all four legs but still has its tail, it is called a froglet. The tail continues to shrink, and once the tail disappears, it is a frog. As a frog, it becomes insectivorous, with some types carnivorous, eating small mammals.

What a young polliwog is called?
A young Polliwog is another way to say the word Tadpole. A tadpole is the before structure of a frog that is maturing in it's life cycle. Overall, tadpoles are small reptiles that dwell in the sea.
Can a frog live without legs?
Pre-tadpole frogs, or those at an embryonic stage, can regrow tissue effectively. This genetic ability has been known to enable frog embryos to recover from very severe cuts, equatable to human injuries sustained in a motorcycle crash at 70m/hr, without any visible scar tissue. Even tadpoles are capable of completely restoring a severed tail in as little as nine days. Fully-grown frogs, however, lose this genetic ability in adulthood. So, no. I don't believe total (or any...) leg regrowth is on the cards for the frog amputees of late. Sadly.
