Solution

The correct option is A True
The process by which a tadpole turns to a frog is known as metamorphosis. The thyroid glands produces thyroxine hormone whose secretion causes metamorphosis. The production of this hormone requires iodine in water. In its absence tadpoles can not become frogs.
