Solution

The correct option is B Jumping on ground
The neck is absent in frog and the head is directly continued into the trunk. While resting on land, the frog keeps its short forelimbs upright and the long hind limbs folded like Z. The frog jumps by a sudden extension of the hind limbs which act like springs throwing. The absence of neck helps the frog in jumping. Thus the correct answer is option A.
