Answer:-

  • As we know frog catched and eaten their food with the help of tounge.
  • Spit switch and tongue's softness keep tongue sticky when capturing prey.
  • A frog tongue's stickiness is caused by a reversible saliva in combination with a super soft tongue, new research shows.
  • A frog's saliva is thick and sticky during prey capture, then turns thin and watery as prey is removed inside the mouth.

i hope it helps you.

Answer:

  • New research from Georgia Tech reveals how frog tongues work.
  • First, the frog's super-soft tongue stretches out like a bungee cord and splats against an insect.
  • The tongue wraps around the insect and covers it with sticky saliva before the victim knows what hit it.
