The correct response is:
To facilitate cutaneous respiration, which requires moist skin for oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange, making them prefer watery environments.
Frogs rely on their skin for respiration (cutaneous respiration), and a moist environment is essential for this process, as it allows for effective gas exchange. As a result, frogs are often found in or near water or humid areas to maintain their skin's moisture.
