Description: Several species of insects, reptiles, and amphibiaâ€â€Âlike the wood frog shown hereâ€â€Âcan reduce the risk of freezing by increasing glucose levels, which decreases the freezing point of their body fluids. Furthermore, some species can tolerate being partially frozen because they can prevent ice crystals from forming inside their cells.
