  • TYMPANUM
    Found just behind the eyes, functions as the ears of the frog. They receive sound waves both above and below water allowing the frog to hear.
  • EXTERNAL NARES

    To let air into and out of the frog. This is a view of the nares from outside of the frog.
  • INTERNAL NARES
    Let air into and out of the frog. This is a view of the nares from inside of the frog.
  • MAXILLARY TEETH
    Used for holding prey.
  • VOMERINE TEETH
    Set of teeth also used for holding prey.
  • EUSTACHIAN TUBES
    Function to equalize pressure on both sides of the eardrum or tympanum
  • TONGUE
    Aids in swallowing and catching prey. In humans the tongue also aids in speech and taste.
  • GLOTTIS
    Opening between the vocal chords at the upper part of the windpipe or larynx.
  • ESOPHAGUS
    Food is swallowed through the esophagus where peristalsis aids its movement to the stomach.
  • LUNGS
    Transport oxygen to the blood as well as remove waste like carbon dioxide through a process called respiration.
  • HEART
    Heart of a frog only has three chambers (two atria and one ventricle) however the role and function is the same.
  • TYMPANUM

  • LARGE INTESTINE
    To absorb water and store fecal material until it can be excreted from the body.
  • EXTERNAL NARES

    To let air into and out of the frog. This is a view of the nares from outside of the frog.
  • INTERNAL NARES
    Let air into and out of the frog. This is a view of the nares from inside of the frog.
  • SMALL INTESTINE

    Receives the mixture of chyme from the stomach through the pyloric valve.
  • MAXILLARY TEETH
    Used for holding prey.
  • VOMERINE TEETH
    Set of teeth also used for holding prey.
  • STOMACH
    In the stomach food is further broken down by gastric juices and peristalsis until it becomes a liquid substance called chyme.
  • EUSTACHIAN TUBES
    Function to equalize pressure on both sides of the eardrum or tympanum
  • TONGUE

  • GLOTTIS
    Opening between the vocal chords at the upper part of the windpipe or larynx.
  • LIVER
    Produces bile, a substance that emulsifies fats contained within the food we eat, and stores it in the gall bladder to be secreted into the small intestine.
  • ESOPHAGUS
    Food is swallowed through the esophagus where peristalsis aids its movement to the stomach.
  • SPLEEN - helps to destroy old red blood cells and lymphocytes, which are cells that produce antibodies to help fight infected and cancerous cells.​
    KIDNEYS - filter out waste from the blood through structures known as nephrons. The waste removed is combined with water to form urine.​
    OVIDUCT AND EGGS - oviducts are tubes that carry eggs from the ovaries to the uterus. The eggs are the female reproductive cell.​
    TESTIS - the male reproductive gland that produce sperm and male hormones such as testosterone.​
  • LUNGS
    Transport oxygen to the blood as well as remove waste like carbon dioxide through a process called respiration.
  • GALL BLADDER
    Stores bile that is received from the liver. Bile is secreted from the gall bladder into the first section of the small intestine (duodenum) to help aid in digestion.
  • HEART
    Heart of a frog only has three chambers (two atria and one ventricle) however the role and function is the same.
