What is an insect?

Insects are invertebrate animals with six legs.  Most of them have wings and they can fly.  They also have antennae or feelers so they can smell.  Ladybirds, butterflies, bumblebees and beetles are insects.  Spiders have eight legs so they are not insects.

Frog's life Cycle

Frogs are oviparous.  They lay eggs in the water.  When they are born, they don´t look like frogs at all.  They look more like little fish with a big head.  These are called tadpoles.  They breath through gills in the water.  Later tadpoles grow legs and their tail disappear.  They have lungs to breathe.  They are ready to live on land.
