Life Cycles of Amphibians
The life cycles of amphibians refer to the various stages of development and growth that these cold-blooded vertebrates undergo throughout their lives. This includes the process of metamorphosis, where amphibians begin as aquatic larvae with gills and eventually transform into terrestrial adults with lungs. The life cycle typically consists of egg, larval, metamorphosis, and adult stages, with each stage serving a different purpose in the amphibian's survival and reproduction.
