Can anyone explain this question......
Invertebrate ancestors of vertebreates did not have mouths, but used their gill slits for filter feeding instead of oxygen uptake. Oxygen was taken up instead through their skin. Which of the following animals is capable of oxygen uptake through the skin?
A. fish
B. Lamprey
C. frogs
D. Snakes
The answer is B, but I though frogs took alot of oxygen through their skin? Soln in the back of book discusses venous and arterial blood mixing, such animals are reptiles, amphibians, and animals that uptake oxygen their their skin. Its prob. 685 in the book.
