Explore frog anatomy and development with a clear, hands-on guide.
This introduction into the anatomy, histology, and embryology of the frog combines practical dissection and microscopic study with a structured overview of how the frog’s body works. It covers major systems, from nerves and sense organs to the circulatory and reproductive systems, and it explains how development unfolds from egg to embryo. The text emphasizes careful technique, drawing, and the use of the microscope to illuminate the frog’s interior.
This edition presents flat and detailed explanations alongside illustrations and step-by-step procedures. It is designed for students who want to understand both the big picture of frog biology and the hands-on skills used in biology labs, including dissection and microscopic anatomy.
- Dissection and drawing guidance to reveal boundaries, relations, and structure.
- Histology and anatomy of key organs, including the eye, ear, and reproductive organs.
- Developmental biology covering egg formation, fertilisation, segmentation, and germ layers.
- Foundational topics in cell division and tissue organization, with practical lab steps.
Ideal for readers studying biology, anatomy, or veterinary science who want a practical, lab-focused introduction to the frog’s body and its development.
