1 Toads are amphibians. Only two species are native to Britain, the Common toad (Bufo bufo) and the
Natterjack toad (Bufo calamita).
Natterjack toads like warm sandy soil in open and sunny habitats, with shallow pools for breeding.
Examples of these habitats are heathland and sand dunes.
Common toads like cooler, more shady habitats, such as woodland.
Many areas of sand dunes are being developed for camp sites. Heathland can easily change to
woodland as trees grow on it. In the summer, woodland is colder than heathland due to the shade the
trees create.
These conditions suit the Common toad, but not the Natterjack. As a result of the changing habitats
the Natterjack toad is becoming an endangered species.

(a) (i) Name one external feature that identifies an animal as an amphibian.
Skin is moist
……………………………………………………………………………………………………. [1]

(ii) Amphibians are a class of vertebrate. Name two other vertebrate classes.
Birds

(b) State one piece of information from the passage to show that the Common toad and Natterjack
toad are closely related species.
They are of the same genus, Bufo.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. [1]

(c) From the information provided, state two reasons why Natterjack toads are becoming
endangered.
Their habitats are now being developed, therefore making it unusable for the Natterjack toads.
