The correct answer is option 1 - Mesonephros.
Mesonephros is the type of kidneys present in frogs. It is an intermediate stage of kidney development between pronephros and metanephros. Mesonephros functions primarily as a temporary excretory organ during early stages of development in frogs.
Option 2, Metanephros, is the type of kidneys found in advanced vertebrates like mammals, including humans. Metanephros is the functional kidney that develops during embryonic development and continues throughout adult life.
Option 3, Archinephros, is not a correct term for the type of kidneys present in frogs.
Option 4, Pronephros, is the initial stage of kidney development in frogs, but it is not the main type of kidneys found in frogs.
