• C. The statement is false for both the environment.
• D. The statement is true for water but false for land.

Hint:

Frogs: Skin and buccal cavity always, lungs on land.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Frogs utilize multiple respiratory surfaces. In water, they primarily rely on cutaneous respiration (skin) and buccal pumping (buccal cavity). On land, they continue to use skin and buccal pumping but also utilize their lungs for more efficient gas exchange in air.
