Q.

Frogs respire in water by skin and buccal cavity and on land by skin, buccal cavity and lungs.

Choose the correct answer from the following :

  1. A

    The statement is false for both the environment

  2. B

    The statement is true for water but false for land

  3. C

    The statement is true for both the environment

  4. D

    The statement is false for water but true for land

Solution

In water, frogs respire only through their skin (cutaneous respiration); the buccal cavity is not used — so the given statement is false for water.

On land, frogs use the skin (cutaneous), buccal cavity (buccopharyngeal), and lungs (pulmonary) for respiration — so the statement is true for land.

False for water, true for land.
