answer:

Frogs and toads are very similar but frogs are more aquatic, toads are more terrestrial. Both of these amphibians face a variety of dangers. Therefore, they have poisons to protect them from predators.  

There are quite a few differences between frogs and toads. However, one of the biggest notable differences is that frogs have moist, permeable skin. Toads have dry skin that is covered in warts.A lot of that has to do with the habitat each occupies.    

 Frogs live in places that are quite damp, often near ponds, rivers, streams, lakes, and so forth. Some toads do like dampness, but for the most part, the only time toads go to bodies of water is to lay their eggs. Otherwise, they are often found in very dry areas.

 Frogs generally have long, powerful rear legs, well suited for jumping. Even tree frogs tend to be good jumpers. Toads have shorter legs and are designed to walk. When toads do jump, the jumping is normally weak.They are also different in defenses. For protection, frogs normally jump, often into the water. As already mentioned, toads have warty skin and the warts produce secretions that are either poisonous or distasteful.

 Additionally, frogs have fully webbed feet, made to aid in swimming. The feet of some toads might be partly webbed, but often the toes are separated and unwebbed. Toads can swim, but they normally spend so little time around water that they have no need for webbed toes.Still, one of the biggest noticeable differences is the skin. Since a frog’s skin is smooth, damp, and permeable, frogs can take in air through the skin.  

If they are subjected to dry conditions, though, frogs can rapidly dehydrate and die. The dry, warty skin of a toad protects them from this liability
