REPTILES & AMPHIBIANS

Reptiles and amphibians are similar animals with a few key differences.
Class Reptilia, or reptiles, include turtles, lizards, snakes, and crocodiles. Reptiles have scales and lungs.
Amphibians are in the class Amphibia, referring to these organisms living half of their life in the water and half on land. This class includes salamanders, toads, frogs, and caecilians. They have no scales, and transition from having gills to lungs during different life stages.
