Question
How do different senses work in frog? Explain in brief.

Answer

Sense Organs in Frog:
Frog has different types of sense organs which are as follows:
  1. Sensory papillae or organs of touch.
  2. Taste buds.
  3. Nasal epithelium for the sense of smell.
  4. Eyes for vision and us.
  5. Tympanum with internal ears for hearing.
Out of these, eyes and internal ears are well-organised structures and the rest are cellular aggregations around nerve endings. Eyes in a frog are a pair of spherical structures situated in the orbit in skull. These are simple eyes. External ear is absent in frogs and only tympanum can be seen externally. The ear is an organ of hearing as well as balancing.
