Frogs: An Amphibian Marvel
Frogs: An Amphibian Marvel
Introduction
Frogs, belonging to the vast group of amphibian creatures, are fascinating beings that inhabit moist environments, with many preferring an aquatic lifestyle. They have been subjects of interest from both biological and cultural perspectives. A 10,000-word English article could encompass topics ranging from the morphology, physiology, ecology, behaviors, diversity, and impacts on humans. Here's a possible outline for such an article:
Section 1: Morphology and Physiology
Frogs' anatomical structures: skin, eyes, legs, etc.
