Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Frogs can live both on land and in fresh water and belong to class Amphibia of phylum Chordata. The most common species of frog found in India is Rana tigrina. They do not have constant body temperature i.e., their body temperature varies with the temperature of the environment. Such animals are called cold blooded or poikilotherms. The colour of the frog changes while they are in grasses and on dryland. They have the ability to change the colour to hide them from their enemies. This protective coloration is called mimicry. Frogs take shelter in deep burrows to protect them from extreme heat and cold during winter and summer. This is called summer sleep (aestivation) and winter sleep (hibernation).
