Figure 1.7 Adaptations to the Environment The limbs of frogs show adaptations to the different environments of each species. (A) This terrestrial frog walks across the ground using its short legs and peglike digits (toes). (B) Webbed rear feet are evident in this highly aquatic species of frog. (C) This arboreal species has toe pads, which are adaptations for climbing. (D) A different arboreal species has extended webbing between the toes, which increases surface area and allows the frog to glide from tree to tree.
