LIFE CYCLE OF A FROGMetamorphosis:

Frogs lay egg masses in the water.

After several days to weeks, tadpoles

hatch from eggs and live in water using

gills to breathe.

At 12 weeks old, the tadpole has

transformed into a froglet with legs,

arms, and a small tail. Gills disappear and lungs are developed.

16 weeks after hatching, the frog has completed the

growth cycle. It no longer has a tail.

It lives mostly on land.

Between 6 to 9 weeks old, a tadpole

grows legs.
