Species Life Cycle Anatomy Quiz Main Menu
Frogs lay their eggs in water or wet places Floating clumps of eggs are called frog spawn Once laid, the eggs are surrounded by a jellylike covering to protect them Main Menu
After 21 days the embryo leaves the jelly shell and attaches to a weed in the water The embryo grows until it is big enough to break free into the water This can take from 3 days to 3 weeks depending on the species of frog Main Menu
After about 5 weeks, the tadpole starts to grow hind legs This is followed by the growth of forelegs The tails become smaller Lungs begin to develop Mouth widens Main Menu
11 weeks after an egg is laid, a fully developed frog emerges from the water. The frog will now live mostly on land, but returns to the water to swim. Main Menu
