why is the number of eggs laid by frogs at a time much higher than those made by a hen


Ayushkashyap100: The number of eggs laid by frogs at a time are much higher than those laid by a hen because of the following reasons: 1) We can see External fertilization in frog but not in hen. 2) Due to external fertilization, the female frog lays a vast number of eggs in water & males releases millions of sperms on to them.

 In the case of frogs, because most frogs do not brood (protect their eggs), it makes sense to lay hundreds together so that at least a few may avoid predation.

In the case of chickens, which do brood, it makes more sense to lay them only a few at a time and protect them until they hatch.
