This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Frog Life Cycle, 5. Froglet 5. By 12 weeks, the tadpole has only a teeny tail stub and looks like a miniature version of the adult frog. 6. Adult Frog, 3. Hind Legs Develop 3. In this stage the tadpole sprouts legs and then has a longer body, and has a more distinct head. It still breathes using gills and has a tail. 4. Front Legs Develop, 6. Adult Frog 6. By between 12 to 16 weeks, depending on water and food supply, the frog has completed the fullgrowth cycle, 4. Front Legs Develop 4. The arms will begin to bulge where they will eventually pop out, elbow first. After about 9 weeks, the tadpole looks more like a teeny frog with a really long tail. 5. Froglet, 2. Legless Tadpole 2. This stage hatches from the egg. The tadpole spends its time swimming in the water, eating and growing. Tadpoles breathe using gills and have a tail. 3. Hind Legs Develop, 1. Fertilized Eggs . 1. The mass of cells in the egg come to form an embryo. Organs and gills begin to form, and in the meantime, the embryo lives off of its internal yolk. This supplies it with nutrients for 21 days. 2. Legless Tadpole
