Amphibians Breathe Through On Land. Amphibians live partly on land and in water. Their lungs are not powerful enough to properly supply their bodies with the needed oxygen.
Later, their bodies change, growing legs and lungs enabling them to live on the land. Most amphibians begin their lives in water and eventually adapt to life on land by developing lungs and limbs that allow them to move on land. Amphibians live on land and in the water.
When they hatch from their eggs, amphibians have gills so they can breathe in the water.
They breathe through gills while they are tadpoles. Although they are not born with these organs, they develop them during the metamorphosis. If you landed on this page because your frog has gone underwater, it is my hope that the section above this conclusion has calmed you down. Do amphibians breathe both on land and in the water?
