The assertion is true, as the eyes of a frog are located on top of its head, providing a wide field of vision. However, the reason is not the correct explanation, as frogs primarily use their sense of sight to locate prey and predators in their environment. While they do have a well-developed sense of hearing, it is not the primary sense they rely on for survival.

  • Frogs have several sense organs, including eyes, ears, skin, and a specialized olfactory organ called Jacobson's organ. 
  • The eyes of the frog are well-developed and are located on the top of the head. 
  • The frog's eardrums are visible as circular structures behind the eyes, and they are sensitive to both airborne and underwater sounds. 
  • The frog's skin is highly sensitive and can detect changes in temperature and pressure, as well as the presence of chemicals in the environment.
  • Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
