Frogs respire on land and in water by two different methods:
Statement I: | In water, skin acts as aquatic respiratory organ (cutaneous respiration). |
Statement II: | On land, the buccal cavity, skin and lungs act as the respiratory organs. |
1. | Statement I is correct, Statement II is correct |
2. | Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is correct |
3. | Statement I is correct, Statement II is incorrect |
4. | Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is incorrect |
Statement I: | In water, skin acts as aquatic respiratory organ (cutaneous respiration). |
Statement II: | On land, the buccal cavity, skin and lungs act as the respiratory organs. |
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): | The skin of a frog is always kept moist and has a mucus covering. |
Reason (R): | Frogs respire through the skin as well. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
I: | In water, the skin acts as an aquatic respiratory organ (cutaneous respiration). |
II: | On land, the buccal cavity, skin and lungs act as the respiratory organs. |
1. | Only I | 2. | Only II |
3. | Both I and II | 4. | Neither I nor II |
A: | The frog never drinks water but absorbs it through the skin. |
B: | Frogs respire through skin when in water. |
C: | The vascular system of frog is well-developed closed type. |
D: | In male frogs, the ureters act as urogenital duct. |
E: | The ear is an organ of hearing as well as balancing. |
1. | Frogs respire only through their skin and not through lungs. |
2. | Adult frogs use their lungs for respiration, but can also respire through their moist skin. |
3. | Frogs cannot respire through their skin; they rely solely on their lungs. |
4. | The respiration in frogs is identical to that in humans, relying entirely on pulmonary ventilation. |
