What allowed amphibians to flourish on land?
Amphibians are said to have evolved from fish such as the lungfish or lobe finned fish. These fish's ponds may have dried up and the fish had the need to develop a lung and legs to breathe oxygen and walk on land. Amphibians technically do not live on land though because they spend most of their lives near bodies of water.

While some adult amphibians can spend time on land, they typically return to aquatic habitats for breeding.

What do amphibians breathe through?
