A tadpole
The tail of a froglet is absorbed into the body as it undergoes metamorphosis into a frog. The cells in the tail break down and are reabsorbed, allowing the frog to fully transition into its adult form without the tail falling off.
a tadpole is the second stage before it grows into a frog.
yes. a tadpole is a young frog. A Tadpole MAY be a young frog but all tadpoles are not neccessarily young frogs. There are several species of creature like Newts and Toads etc that also have a tadpole stage.
Sorry to jump straight onto this as a newbie, but it got me thinking... The problem with metamorphosis seems to come from the assumption that the process evolved in the same order that it occurs. for example, just because the creature becomes a chrysalis then a butterfly, doesn't mean that the chrysalis evolved before the butterfly. to propose a hypothetical example... A tadpole becomes a frog without the need for a chrysalis. The frog continues to evolve, so that the difference between frog and tadpole increases, and the metamorphosis becomes more complicated. As metamorphosis becomes more complicated, the vulnerability of the organism during the process makes it advantageous for it to be better protected. The individuals with, for example, tougher skin, (at least during the process)are more likely to survive. The tougher skin becomes exagerated until it is distinguishable from the rest of the organism. once the chrysalis has evolved, the extent of the metamorphosis can evolve until it entails a complete decomposition. Any holes in there?
The frog's bladder functions to store urine produced by the kidneys before it is excreted from the body. It helps regulate the frog's water balance by retaining or releasing water as needed.
it is absorbed into the frog glad i could help :D

An egg. then it hatches into a tadpole, and then becomes a frog.
Freddie the frog?
It's tail
Frogspawn, then tadpole, then frog
a tadpole is the second stage before it grows into a frog.
well the "tadpole" never dies. it becomes a frog.. lool
frog
No. As with most reptiles the babies are on their own the moment they hatch. The frog has a tadpole stage that often becomes a food source for larger fish.
