Solution
Third option is the answer.
It evolved from an ancestor with tadpole stage.
The microhylids of New Guinea and Australia completely bypass the tadpole stage, with direct

and never need venture to the ground. Where species do have tadpoles, these almost always lack
the teeth or horny beaks typical of the tadpoles of other families.
