because once they grow out of the tadpole stage and into the frog stage, they no longer need them because they develop lungs
Tadpoles start of with gills.
tadpoles loose there gills after 4 weeks
they have gills and they swim in the water.amphibian is what tadpoles are and that means double life. so tadpoles only are like fish for a short time.
Well Tadpoles breath through there gills but as the tadpoles turn into frogs the gills wear off and are replaced by lungs. So both.
yes tadpoles use gills to breath in the water By Robert .M. Johnson .j.
fish only have gills, because other animals have tails, fins, but only fish have gills (not counting tadpoles, or bug, or amphibian larva/young)
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.
frogs with gills a frogs with gills are called a tadpole
Yes, in a sense tadpoles use gills and lungs to obtain oxygen. When they first hatch they use gills, Eventually, they become less dependent on the gills as they grow lungs.
Gills enable tadpoles to breathe in the water.
They are little fish. Tadpoles live in water, and they require oxygen to survive, therefore they have gills. The gills allow the tadpoles to breathe.
well they don't just breathe by their gills they also can breath by their mouthAnswer:It depends on the stage of their development. Ypounger tadpoles breathe only with internal or external gills. About the time their legs start to develop they start to develop lungs. Just before emerging from the water their lungs are developed enough to share the burden. When they emerge it's lungs only!
