Pippin's Question Box

Based on the science dissection that we just had the past week, The managers of the question box have decided to check your knowlage of frogs!

This weeks question is...

What type of heart does the frog have? (Name the parts as well). For this question you should just use either your lab packet or the notes that you took during the dissection! After all, you don't need a website to tell you things that you witnessed hands on!

A frog has a three- chambered heart. Unlike a four chambered heart, this heart is made up of a right and left atria, but only one lower ventricle.

Hello, before I start, let me just tell you that I LOVE doing this frog dissection lab, its actually very fun. Well, now let me get back to the question. A frog has a three-chambered heart with a right atria and a left atria with one lower ventricle. Before a frog is actually a "frog" it is a tadpole, which has a two-chambered heart and a single-loop cicrualtory system.


Here are the sources I got my information from:

My textbook
My lab packet
