It includes both the neural system and the endocrine glands.
The chemical coordination of various organs of the body is achieved by hormones which are secreted by the endocrine glands.
The prominent endocrine glands found in a frog are pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, thymus, pineal body, pancreatic islets, adrenals and gonads.
The nervous system is organised into a central nervous system (brain and spinal cord), a peripheral nervous system (cranial and spinal nerves) and an autonomic nervous system (sympathetic and parasympathetic)
There are ten pairs of cranial nerves arising from the brain.
The brain is enclosed in a bony structure called the brain box (cranium).
The brain is divided into forebrain, midbrain and hind-brain.
The forebrain includes olfactory lobes, paired cerebral hemispheres and unpaired diencephalon.
The midbrain is characterised by a pair of optic lobes.
Hind-brain consists of cerebellum and medulla oblongata.
The medulla oblongata passes out through the foramen magnum and continues into the spinal cord, which is enclosed in the vertebral column
