Frog is a poikilotherm, exhibits camouflage and undergoes aestivation and hibernation, how are all these beneficial to it?
Frog is a poikilotherm (cold blooded animal), i.e., it regulates its body temperature according to its environment.
For with standing very cold temperatures, it undergoes winter sleep (hibernation) and summer sleep in hot temperatures (aestivation). During this period, it lives in a dormant stage with very minimal vital body activities.
Also, frog is capable of changing its body colour, though gradually, with the change in its surrounding and climatic conditions. This capability in frog is called as comouflage and lets it escape from the predators, an essential survival parameter for living.
