Solution

The correct option is C

Frog


Earthworms breathe through their skin. Frogs, when present in water, breathe through their moist skin. This kind of exchange of gases is called as cutaneous respiration. In insects like cockroaches, breathing takes place through a network of fine tubes called tracheae. Birds breathe through their lungs.
