The term for a baby frog is tadpole. Tadpoles are the larval stage of frogs and are typically aquatic, living in water bodies such as ponds and streams. They have a distinctive appearance, with a rounded body and a long, slender tail, which they use for swimming. Tadpoles begin their life as eggs laid in water, and as they develop, they undergo a transformation known as metamorphosis. During this process, they gradually develop legs, lose their tails, and eventually emerge as adult frogs. Tadpoles primarily feed on algae and plant matter during their early growth stages before transitioning to a carnivorous diet as adults.
