Necessary adaptations for life on land
1. Legs to support weight of animal & to allow for movement

2. Lungs and/or cutaneous breathing rather than gills

Skin•mucous glands keep skin moist which is necessary for cutaneous respiration• some have glands that produce poisons or foul-tasting substances
oxygen from the air is drawn into a frog's body by the blood vessels that
lie close to the skin.

Eyes•eyes bulge providing protection from predators •has 2 eyelids–one protects from dust –nictitating membrane is
clear & protects under water

frog

Structures of the MouthTongue
attaches at front of mouth so it can flick out to capture prey
Vomarine Teeth2 large teeth in roof of
mouth that impale the prey
(food is swallowed whole)

Skeleton•Frog has a reduced skeleton (9 vertebrae & no ribs) •Pelvic girdle is adapted to absorb shock from jumping

BrainA larger cerebrum
enables frog to process more
sensory information; large
optic lobe for vision
![Page 17: AmphibiansAmphibians The first vertebrates to live on land](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032414/56649ef15503460f94c02599/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Digestive System• Esophagus: Tube that
leads to the stomach• Stomach: First site of
chemical digestion, breaks down food
• Liver: Makes bile (aids in digestion)
• Gall bladder: Stores bile• Pancreas: Makes insulin
(aids in digestion)
![Page 18: AmphibiansAmphibians The first vertebrates to live on land](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032414/56649ef15503460f94c02599/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Digestive System• Small Intestine (duodenum
and ileum): absorb nutrients from food
• Mesentery: Holds coils of the small intestine together
• Spleen: Part of circulatory system, stores blood
• Large Intestine: Collects waste, absorbs water
• Cloaca - "Sewer": eggs, sperm, urine and feces enter this area
![Page 19: AmphibiansAmphibians The first vertebrates to live on land](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032414/56649ef15503460f94c02599/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Urogenital SystemCombination of the Excretory and Reproductive
systems – they are closely relatedCloaca is the collection cavity for feces, urine, eggs, & sperm - one opening for all these to exit.
![Page 20: AmphibiansAmphibians The first vertebrates to live on land](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032414/56649ef15503460f94c02599/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Reproductive SystemEggs are not watertight so reproduction must
happen in water.Males produce sperm & females produce eggs, both in large numbers for external fertilization
