Are aligators amphibions

Answer 1

Well, gators and crocs are actually what's called a reptile. Other reptiles would include snakes, lizards, etc. Amphibians (frogs, toads, etc) are dependent upon water and can convert the oxygen within the water in order to breath while swimming. Meanwhile, a reptile can live in and out of water, but can only hold their breath underwater for a couple hours - kind of like sea turtles. Another interesting thing is that most reptiles lay their eggs outside of the water, while amphibians lay their eggs in the water.
