Answer:
a. different shape (e.g. flat or ribbon shaped).
d. larger internal surface area of the lungs.
Explanation:
Amphibians are cold blooded animals. They have a low rate of metabolism . Amphibians are located most where there is water or in moist environment because of their skin and how important it is to keep their skin moist.
Amphibians breathe through their skin and this can be called cutaneous respiration. Their lungs are not well developed therefore they undergo a very slow diffusion of oxygen through their blood.
For Amphibians that are larger than bull frogs, they obtain a very sufficient rate of diffusion of gases due to the following reasons:
a. Internal surface area of the lungs: Amphibians that are larger than bull frogs tend to have a more developed respiratory organs which means there lungs have a larger surface area and they are well developed.
b. They have a different body shape: Amphibians larger than bull frogs could have a flat or ribbon shape and their body shapes make it easier for respiratory gases like oxygen to permeate or enter their skin easily.
If a gene is found only on the X chromosome and not the Y chromosome, it is
said to be a sex-linked trait. Because the
gene controlling the trait is located on the sex chromosome, sex linkage is
linked to the gender of the individual. Usually such genes are found on the
X chromosome. The Y chromosome is thus missing such genes (See Diagram above.).
The result is that females will have two copies of the sex-linked gene while
males will only have one copy of this gene. If the gene is recessive, then males
only need one such recessive gene to have a sex-linked trait rather than the
customary two recessive genes for traits that are not sex-linked. This is why
males exhibit some traits more frequently than females.

Answer:
Yes...This is an example of speciation by natural selection
Explanation:
As we know that natural selection always promote those evolutionary changes that are necessary. Changes that happen in chromosome number always promote with a specie that is closely related to the parent specie and produce fertile off-springs. These new generations are most adaptable and can survive in the environment more efficiently than the previous ones.
Additionally, other than natural selection, speciation can also happen as a result of random mutations, genetic drift and by means of artificial selection as well. But the natural likelihood of all these is probably low as compared to that of natural selection.
