Best Answer

Amphibians, like liverworts and mosses are only partially adapted to life on land, having bodies which easily lose water and they still rely on water for sexual reproduction. Both groups of organisms are thought to represent intermediate stages in the evolution towards more advanced forms which are better adapted to life on land.
