Answer 5

Sure its either amphibian or reptile... People have deductive reasoining... In fact, they didn't explain their answer! First off, there are many different types of frogs. Frogs are amphibians because they are cold blooded vertebrates. Frogs also are underwater and land creatures. Be aware, frogs are also poison. If you pet one and touch your eyes, the chances are you may go blind. Also, frogs are not fun to step on... it will prolly mess up your $40 shoes. I hope I provided some clarity.

Answer 6

Frog is an amphibian.

Answer 7

The frog is an amphibian in the order Anura (meaning "tail-less" from Greek an-, without + oura, tail). Adult frogs are characterised by long hind legs, a short body, webbed digits, protruding eyes and the absence of a tail. Most frogs have a semi-aquatic lifestyle, but move easily on land by jumping or climbing. They typically lay their eggs in puddles, ponds or lakes, and their larvae, called tadpoles, have gills and develop in water. Adult frogs follow a carnivorous diet, mostly of arthropods, annelids and gastropods. Frogs are most noticeable through their call, which can be widely heard during the mating season.

The distribution of frogs ranges from tropic to subarctic regions, with most of the species found in tropical rainforests. With over 5,000 species described, they are among the most diverse groups of vertebrates. However the declining numbers of certain species of frogs are increasingly giving cause for concern.

A distinction is often made between frogs and toads on the basis of their appearance, prompted by the convergent adaptation among so-called toads to dry environments; however, this distinction has no taxonomic basis. The only family exclusively given the common name "toad" is Bufonidae, but many species from other families are also called "toads," and the species within the toad genus Atelopus are referred to as "harlequin frogs."

Amphibian:
any cold-blooded vertebrate of the class Amphibia, comprising frogs and toads, newts and salamanders, and caecilians, the larvae being typically aquatic, breathing by gills, and the adults being typically semiterrestrial, breathing by lungs and through the moist, glandular skin.

Answer 11

Frogs are amphibians. They lay their eggs in water and then tadpoles hatch. The tadpoles live in the water until they mature to frogs.
The amphi prefix means both, living a stage in water and one on land.
