There are many differences between reptiles and amphibians. Both are, but reptiles can only lie on the water, while amphibians can live on water and land. Examples of amphibians include frogs and toads, while models of dinosaurs are snakes and crocodiles. Amphibians have external fertilization, while reptiles have internal fertilization. Another difference between them is how they breathe.

Amphibians can breathe through both their lungs and gills, while turtles can only breathe through their lungs. An amphibians skin is sticky, moist, and porous. A reptile's skin is dry and scaly. Lastly, amphibians lay their eggs in water, while turtles lay their eggs on land.
