1.

Male frogs have a pair of testes which are located near the kidneys, female frogs on the other
hand have ovaries also located near the kidneys. When we opened up our frog, we determined
it’s sex that it was male since we found that a pair of testes near the kidney.
2. Frogs have webbed feet, where the toes are connected by a membrane of skin. This webbing
increases the surface area of the foot, providing greater propulsion in water. The webbing also
helps frogs to push against the water more effectively, allowing for efficient swimming
movements.
3. The inner lining of the small intestine is highly folded and covered with finger-like projections
called villi, which further have microscopic projections called microvilli. These structures increase
the surface area available for absorption. This increased surface area allows more contact
between the digested food particles and the absorptive cells of the intestinal wall, enhancing the
absorption process.
4. Firstly, the heart of a frog is way smaller than the size of a human’s, this is evident when we
opened the frog and took out the heart. We also noticed that the frog’s heart had only 3
chambers whereas a human’s had 4.
5. As we were dissecting the frog, we noticed three main features that it had which could help it
survive in the wild. Firstly, it had large and refined muscles in its thighs, these muscles especially
built for jumping helped the frog escape from predators. Second, camouflage, we noticed that
most of the frogs had similar colors in which they were either black, brown, or dark green, these
colors helped them blend in their environment like gardens or swamps, which help them stay
hidden. Lastly, poison glands, as we were dissecting the frog and skinning it, white liquid shot
out from its skin which was most likely poison, this was the frog’s defense mechanism in action
to prevent predators from eating them.
