is to assist in breathing as grown frogs do not have gills
helps air flow to the lungs (used as an air way)
It most likely helps a frog breathe because the do not have gills when they are grown!
In frogs, the truncus arteriosus gives rise to three main divisions in each branch: the systemic arch, the pulmocutaneous artery, and the dorsal aorta. The systemic arch supplies blood to the body, the pulmocutaneous artery delivers blood to the lungs and skin, and the dorsal aorta carries oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.
The closure of the ductus arteriosus at birth in a fetal pig helps shift blood flow from the pulmonary artery to the lungs, as the lungs become functional after birth. This redirection of blood improves oxygenation of the blood, supporting the piglet's transition from receiving oxygen from the placenta to breathing air.
Frogs have underdeveloped lungs, so they must have a moist skin so that oxygen can diffuse into their bodies. Their lungs do not function well enough to be used on their own.
Comprised of the carpus (wrist), metacarpus (palm), and fourdigits or finger
They are used in the breathing process of frogs. Their function is similar to that of the rectus abdominus, which compresses the lungs and forces the air out.

frogs heart has five chambers namely. 1-Sinus Venosus =Thin walled 2-Right auricle =Thin walled 3-Left auricle =Thin walled 4-Ventricle =Thin walled and muscular 5-Truncus arteriosus =Tabular thick walled
Truncus Arteriosus is a rare congenital heart defect. Instead of a baby having two main arteries (the aorta and pulmonary artery) they have only one large one. Their oxygen levels will usually be slightly lower than normal, and congestive heart failure (CHF) usually develops within the first week of life. Some of the symptoms of CHF are shortness of breath, wheezing, rapid and/or noisy breathing and restlessness.
The function of the ductus arteriosus in unborn animals is to sent through the pulmonary artery to the aorta via the ductus arteriosus.

shunt that allows the blood to bypass the lungs until they are fully developed and the infant is breathing on its own ===Joline Preligera===
the function of a frog is to help it jump around
