Life Cycle of a Frog

2
00:00:11,970 --> 00:00:18,030
The life cycle of a frog has four stages.

3
00:00:19,210 --> 00:00:20,949
First, eggs.

4
00:00:21,489 --> 00:00:22,690
Second, tapu.

5
00:00:23,269 --> 00:00:24,329
Third, metamorph.

6
00:00:24,890 --> 00:00:26,170
Fourth, frog.

7
00:00:27,570 --> 00:00:32,729
The female frog lays thousands of jelly-covered eggs in the water.

8
00:00:33,390 --> 00:00:37,090
It takes about ten days for the eggs to hatch.

9
00:00:38,530 --> 00:00:49,729
Eggs hatch into tiny tadpoles. They swim, eat and grow. Tadpoles use their tail to swim.

10
00:00:52,310 --> 00:01:03,189
The froglet continues to grow and frog legs appear. The lungs begin to develop. Its eyes and mouth grow larger and the tail keeps shrinking.

11
00:01:03,189 --> 00:01:16,590
As the tadpole grows, its sprout legs, the froglet, as it is now called, grows and its tail begins to shrink.

12
00:01:19,819 --> 00:01:24,939
When the tail finally disperses, the froglet becomes a frog.

13
00:01:26,620 --> 00:01:32,579
It can now leap onto land and leap out of the water.

14
00:01:32,579 --> 00:01:46,840
When spring arrives, the adult frog will find a maze and lay another generation of frogs.
