Other examples of a frog's organs are its eyes, heart, lungs, and stomach. Several organs working together are called an organ system. The digestive system of a frog is an organ system that provides the frog with a way of getting energy from food sources. The digestive system includes the mouth, stomach, small and large intestines, and other organs. Other systems common to most ani- mals are the respiratory system (used for breathing), the circulatory system (used for moving blood), the nervous system (used for transmitting messages to and from the brain), the reproductive system (used for reproduction), and the ex- cretory system (used for the elimination of waste). Vertebrates (animals with backbones) also have a skeletal system that serves as a support structure.
