Frog's heart is myogenic, i.e., the heartbeat originates from the muscles of the heart. Hence, it is autorhythmic. Wave of contraction originates from sinus venosus and spreads to wall of sinus venosus and both auricles. This compels the heart to beat. Due to this reason, frog's heart will continue to beat as long as it gets a supply of ATP.
