ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -How do amphibians breathe? Most amphibians breathe through lungs and their skin. Their skin has to stay wet in order for them to absorb oxygen so they secrete mucous to keep their skin moist (If they get too dry, they cannot breathe and will die).

Detailed explanation-2: -Amphibians can also breathe through their moist, porous skin, and, in fact, several salamander species and one kind of frog have neither gills nor lungs: They get all of their oxygen through their skin. Frogs begin their lives as tadpoles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Yes, frogs have lungs like we do and if their lungs fill with water, they can drown just like us. Frogs can also breathe through their skin. They need to keep their skin moist to be able to breathe through their skin, so if their skin dries out they are not able to absorb oxygen.

Detailed explanation-4: -Amphibians are different from reptiles because they do not have any scales. Instead, they have smooth, slimy skin. An amphibian’s skin is incredibly moist. This allows it to breathe through its skin.

Detailed explanation-5: -So, the correct answer is ‘True’.
