Kindly answer sir/mam.
Dear student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query
The correct option c).
Pipa is a genus of frog that lays eggs which are carried on its back. The skin on back thickens and grows around them to form pockets. The eggs hatch and larvae develop inside these pockets. The fully developed toads emerge from these pockets and start living solitary life. The female Pipa then sheds the skin to start the cycle again.
Hope this information will clear your doubts about the Pipa.
