Let’s go step by step to label the external anatomy of a frog using Diagram 1 and Diagram 2.
First, look at Diagram 1 — it shows the side view (lateral view) of the frog. The lines point to different parts on the head and body.
From top to bottom in Diagram 1:
- The top line points to the eye → that’s the
Eye
- The next line down points to the nostril area → that’s the
Nostril (or External Nares)
- Then there’s a line pointing to the mouth opening → that’s the
Mouth
- Below that, near the throat area, is the
Tympanic Membrane (eardrum) — it looks like a circular patch behind the eye
- The last line at the bottom points to the front leg → that’s the
Forelimb
Now, Diagram 2 — this is the ventral view (belly side) of the frog. The lines are on the left side of the frog’s body.
From top to bottom in Diagram 2:
- Top line: points to the shoulder area →
Shoulder
- Next: elbow joint →
Elbow
- Then: wrist area →
Wrist
- Then: fingers/toes on the front foot →
Digits (or Toes)
- Bottom line: points to the belly area →
Abdomen
Wait — let’s double-check standard frog external anatomy labels for these diagrams.
Actually, in most school worksheets:
Diagram 1 (side view):
Top to bottom:
1. Eye
2. Nostril
3. Mouth
4. Tympanum (eardrum)
5. Forelimb
Diagram 2 (ventral view, left side):
Top to bottom:
1. Shoulder
2. Elbow
3. Wrist
4. Digits (toes of forelimb)
5. Abdomen
Yes, that matches common labeling.
So now we can write the answers clearly.
Final Answer:
Diagram 1 (from top to bottom):
1. Eye
2. Nostril
3. Mouth
4. Tympanum
5. Forelimb
Diagram 2 (from top to bottom):
1. Shoulder
2. Elbow
3. Wrist
4. Digits
5. Abdomen
