Solution

The correct option is A Gills
Frogs show metamorphosis. They mature from tadpole stage into adult frogs. In the larva of frog, the respiration is carried out by gills. The gills absorb oxygen from the water passing over them. The major transition in the process of metamorphosis in frogs is having gills to having functional lungs in an adult.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Gills'.
