Why is the population of frogs and fishes little as compared to the eggs they lay?

Most frogs and fish abandon their eggs meaning that predators will eat many of the eggs. Therefore for enough eggs to survive they must lay many times more eggs than will be eaten. Hens tend their eggs continuously from when they are laid until they hatch protecting them from predators. Also a hen "invests" more per egg than frogs and fish do, meaning it takes more effort to lay each egg. Note: Hens can lay one egg per day and stop when they have all of them in the nest that they are able to manage. This is why farmers remove the eggs daily to keep the hens laying.


Do most snakes lay eggs?

Most species of snakes lay eggs, most of which abandon them shortly after laying. About 70% of snake species lay eggs. A few species actually construct nests and stay in the vicinity of the eggs, sometimes coiling around the eggs to create heat to incubate them.Some species of snakes retain the eggs until almost ready to hatch and lay them shortly before hatching begins. However, there are a few species of snakes that nourish their young with a placenta in addition to the yolk sac, with is highly unusual. Snakes of these species include rattlesnakes, copperheads, water snakes, and garter snakes.yes

Why would you expect to be fewer frogs than worms in the ecosystem?

Well, frogs are scientifically nocturnal, therefore leading them to eat the worms, and worms don't eat frogs, so realistically frogs should have more population than worms because they don't get eaten by as many predators no matter what ecosystem they or you or them or him or she or it or anything!
