bacause they want to hide themselves
Not really. While there are reptiles that can change color, none of them live in the ocean.
Reptiles can be a wide range of colors, including green, brown, black, yellow, red, and orange. Their coloration is often influenced by their environment and serves various purposes such as camouflaging, thermoregulation, and communication. Some reptiles can even change color to adapt to different situations.
There are many reptiles that can change their colors to some degree, but the chameleon wins first prize in color-changing ability.
Yes, most reptiles can see red light, although some species may have limited color vision.

Triceratops, like many reptiles, may have had the ability to change color through various means such as hormonal changes, temperature, or environmental factors, although direct evidence of this is limited due to the fossilization process. Modern relatives, such as chameleons and some species of lizards, can change color for camouflage, communication, or temperature regulation, which provides insight into how similar mechanisms might have worked in dinosaurs. However, specific details about color change in Triceratops remain speculative, as their skin and color patterns are primarily inferred from fossilized remains and comparisons with living species.
It's the cellular signaling pathways that cause naturally normal color change in reptiles, fish etc.Please see related link below!
by painting it. Some change color in certain temperatures of water.
Yes some reptiles do have gills.
Most are coloured to blend in with their natural surroundings. Some - like the chameleons - can change their colour 'at will'
well,some reptiles do some don't but in the record there are more reptiles that have backbones
