Why do fish and frogs lay eggs in hundreds whereas a hen lays only one egg at a time?

Answered by admin @



YES, fish and frog produce a huge number of eggs compare to hens because of the following reasons:

1)External fertilization occurs in fish and frog.

2)The females lays a vast number of eggs in water & males releases some millions of sperms on to them.

3)Eggs may be carried to a long distance by water currents or they may be eaten by predators.

4)So,fertilization is a chance factor & controlled by nature.

Hence it is inevitable to produce a vast number of eggs by fish & frog.
