Asked in Dinosaurs
Are animals that swim or fly Dinosaurs?
Dinosaurs were land dwellers, though some probably could swim it
was not their main form of locomotion. However in the time of the
dinosaurs there were also two classes of marine reptile that are
now extinct. There where Icthyosaurs, which resembled dolphins, and
Plesiosaurs, which had paddles for limbs, but these were separate
from dinosaurs.
As to flying, there were also flying reptiles during that time
called pterosaurs. Again these were a group of animals separate
from, but related to dinosaurs. However, one group of flying
animals than many scientists now consider to be a branch of
dinosaurs are the birds.

What order of dinosaurs did birds evolve from?
Birds evolved from a group of Saurischian dinosaurs known as
theropods. The theropods include dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus,
Velociraptor, and Deinonychus. Theropods were predators who walked
on two feet and had relatively small arms. Some of these dinosaurs
were small and started growing feathers, at first to keep warm.
Eventually these feathers became adapted for flying.

branch called sphenodonts.
