2. 2 There are many types of frogs. Some are very beautiful………

3. 3 But some are very ugly.

4. 4 The life cycle of a frog has seven steps.

5. 5 The first step is to mate. Males climb on the females’ back and hug them. This is called an amplexus and it can last several days.

6. 6 The frogs lay their eggs in masses. Then the tadpole is born.

7. 7 Gills appear.

8. 8 External gills disappear and legs and arms form. It is now called a froglet.

9. 9 The tail starts to shrink and then the frog can go on land.

10. 10 The frog is a vertebrate because it has a backbone. Sometimes it is hard to believe because some frogs are as small as a thumbnail.
