These nostrils in their mouths are the internal nares. Frogs breathe air in through the nares and pass the air through their mouths down to their lungs. They have no diaphragm to help pull the air in.

Internal Nares Frog

Their external nares are on the tip of their head. This allows them to keep their body under water while sticking their nostrils out of the water. This arrangment protects them from preditors. These external openings enter into the mouth area because of this external position. The air enters an opening at the back of the throat called the glottis where it is transported to the lungs.
