Solution

The correct option is A Frog
  • An exoskeleton is a hard shell-like structure that protects the organism from the outside.
  • The presence of an exoskeleton is a characteristic feature of the phylum Arthropoda.
  • Being an amphibian organism the frog can live in both land and water, hence the body of a frog is built in such a way that it aids in swimming and jumping, so they do not possess an exoskeleton.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
