Frog has osmoreceptor in his mouth

1.	Frog has osmoreceptor in his mouth
Answer» A frog will eat just about any living thing he can fit in his mouth, but he also has sensitive taste buds. He will occasionally spit out hastily grabbed prey if the taste is unpleasant. The taste buds are on the surface of his tongue and the inside of his mouth. Completely aquatic frogs in the Pipidae family do not have tongues, but they have taste discs in their mouth tissue to receive taste sensations. Osmoreceptors present in the mouth of frog are involved in detecting osmotic pressure and maintain the salt and water balance in the body fluids. Male recognises a mature female by swollen abdomen.
