 Frogs respire on land and in the water by two different methods. In water, skin acts as an aquatic respiratory organ (cutaneous respiration). Dissolved O2 in the water is exchanged through the skin by diffusion. On land, the buccal cavity, skin and lungs act as the respiratory organs. The respiration by lungs is called  pulmonary respiration. In the water  exchanged is through the skin by diffusion.In frog, heart has three -chambers, two atria and one ventricle, and is covered by a membrane called pericardium. The frog excreates urea and thus is a ureotelic animal. It never becomes uricotelic. In the frog, fertilisation is external and takes place in water.
