What are ten differences between a human skeleton and a frog skeleton?

1. The frog's pelvic girdle is tilted laterally to accomodate rearward extension of the legs. 2. The frog's phalanges are significantly longer relative to the metacarpal and metatarsal bones. 3. The frog's vertebral column lacks the cervical and lumbar curvatures. 4. The frog's skull has a foramen magnum shifted further back. 5. The frog's distal limbs do not have opposable thumbs. 6. The frog's pectoral girdle is much sturdier. 7. The frog's teeth are sharp and pointed. 8. The frog's carpals are rotated inwards. 9. The frog's eye orbit is significantly larger. 10. The frog's tibia and fibula are fused.


How does frog skeleton differs from man's skeleton?

Most of the human bones are found in the frog skeleton but there are tree major differences;*The pelvis is forked*some bones unfused in humans are fused in frogs, like the tibia and fibula into the tibiofibula*most frogs have no ribs


What is the different between a frogs nostril and a humans nostril?

The frog's inside nostril is on the roof of its mouth while the human's inside nostril is in the back of the mouth. The frog does not breathe through its skin alone. Adult frogs have paired, simple, saclike lungs. As in humans, air enters the body through two nostrils, passes through the windpipe, and is received by the lungs. The mechanism of breathing, however, is different in the frog from that in man. In humans, breathing is aided by the ribs, the diaphragm, and the chest muscles. The frog has no ribs or diaphragm, and its chest muscles are not involved in breathing. A frog may breathe by simply opening its mouth and letting air flow into the windpipe. However, it may also breathe with its mouth closed. The floor of the mouth is lowered, causing the frog's throat to "puff out." When the nostrils open, air enters the enlarged mouth. Then, with nostrils closed, the air in the mouth is forced into the lungs by contraction of the floor of the mouth.
