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:

  • This stretching helps to keep the tongue in contact with the bug.
  • The tongue is also extremely soft – 10 times softer than a human tongue.
  • That softness helps keep the saliva thick as the bug returns to the frog's mouth.
