The respiratory organs of the frog are the lungs, the skin, and the mucous membrane of the mouth. Respiration. The lungs communicate with the pharynx by way of the glottis, which leads into a short, wide windpipe consisting of the larynx or voice organ only, without the long trachea, or windpipe proper, which is found in animals with necks. The walls of this cavity are supported by a pair of fiat arytenoid cartilages and a very.
