  1. Amphibian identity card.
    How are amphibians
    characterized according to
    examples of representing
    beings, basic morphology,
    skin, respiration, circulation,
    nitrogen waste, thermal
    control and types of
    reproduction?


Examples otoads, salamanders. Basicf representing beings: frogs, morphology:
two pairs of limbs, eyelids,


hydrodynamic larvae. Skinpermeable, mucous glands. Respiration:: moist and (^)
cutaneous and pulmonary, branchial in
larval stage. Circulation: closed,
incomplete, heart with thrwithout interventricular seee champtum. bers
Nitrogen waste: urea. Thermal control:
heterothermic. Tysexual, water dependant, externalpes of reproduction:
fecundation and aquatic larval stage.
