I believe that the frog heart has one large chamber. When the "dirty" blood returns to the heart from nourishing the body, it mixes with the newly oxygenated blood from when the frog breathed. This type of heart is not as efficient as other animals with chambers to keep the two kinds of blood "dirty" and oxygenated separated. The frog still gets rid of waste gas and pumps fresh gas to its body but some of the waste blood gets pushed around the body too. The frog blood contains a lower concentration of pure gas blood than other animals.

What is the difference between the frog and human nervous system?

The brain and spinal cord of a human are protected by a triple layer of membranes called meninges; the meninges of the frog have only 2 layers. Human brains are more developed that those of amphibians and contain a cerebral cortex which the frog lacks. A human has 30 pairs of spinal nerves, while a frog has only 10.


Integumentary system of frog?

The integumentary system of a frog has multiple functions. The integumentary system is made up of the skin of a frog, and visually helps to protect the frog - using camouflage. The integumentary system also helps the skin to stay moist when the frog is on land and helps the frog to breathe while underwater.


What human skeletal system is missing in the frog?

The axial and appendicular both make up a frog and human's skeletal system. For a frog, the skeletal system's main function is locomotion and maintaining posture. Although the human and frog skeletal system also protect vital organs the frog does not have any ribs whereas a human does. The frog also has less number of vertebrae, extended pelvic bones, and long bones of the hind legs. The frog skeletal system has l59 and the human has 206. The human's skeletal system is a moveable frame and is an efficient factory for producing red blood cells. The frog's skeletal system also produces red blood cell and all their bones are covered with a membrane called the periosteum from which they get their circulation nerves.


What is stored in the gallbladder of a frog?

It is similar to the function of the gall bladder of a human. They both are used to store the bile, a digestive juice, that is created by the liver. When needed for digestion, the gall bladder secretes a small amount to aid in the breaking down of the food (specifically the emulsification of fats).
