Surprisingly enough, a frog’s body is very much similar to that of a humans. Like humans, frog’s possess skin, bones, muscles, and organs. The frog’s head alone is like an exact copy to that of a humans. Both human’s and frog’s heads possess a brain, mouth, eyes, ears, and nose. Frog’s also hold the same kinds of organs and organ systems as a human. For example, frog’s have a long, sticky tongue, as well as upper and bottom teeth. Humans also have a tongue, teeth, and mouth. Other organs that frogs and humans have in common are kidneys, lungs, a stomach, large and small intestine, and a heart. Humans and frogs also have testes and ovaries respectively. Some of body systems humans and frogs share include the circulatory, nervous, and digestive system. One major difference between the anatomy of a frog and the anatomy of a human is that the anatomy of a frog is less complex to that of a humans. A frog’s body does not contain a rib cage or diaphragm. Humans, however possess both a rib cage and diaphragm, and the diaphragm plays an important role in the human’s breathing and respiration. Also, a frog’s heart is only three-chambered (2 atria and 1 ventricle) the human heart is four-chambered (2 atria and 2 ventricles).
Humans have been known to have similar body structures with animals for a while now, so it's no surprise (or maybe for you it could be) that humans and frogs are similar to one another. Frogs and humans have the similarities they do, because of the common genes they share. As it appears, at least 1,700 genes in the African clawed frog’s DNA are similar to genes in humans that are associated with diseases like, asthma, heart disease,and cancer. In other words, frogs and humans share genetic material that is associated with human diseases. This means that, like humans, frogs carry diseases like cancer and asthma in their genes, however they’re just not affected by it. Frogs and humans may have differences in their body structures, due to the fact that humans are… well, humans and frogs are animals. Frogs are cold blooded carnivores while humans are warm blooded omnivores. A frog’s body structure and anatomy has to be different from that of a humans, because of its environment, diet, and form of survival. Frogs don’t live or eat the same way as humans, just as humans don’t eat or live the same ways as frogs. Nowadays, humans buy their food, unlike frogs who hunt for their meals. Frogs are also much smaller than humans, so it makes sense for their anatomy to be less complex. Again frogs are animals, so the way their body is structured will differ from that of a humans.
