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.

Why amphibians are devoid of scales?
Amphibians are devoid of scales because they are descendants of fish, which also lack scales. Early amphibians evolved from lobe-finned fish, which had bony plates in their skin instead of scales. Over time, these bony plates transformed into the smooth, moist skin characteristic of modern amphibians. This adaptation allowed for better gas exchange through the skin, crucial for their semi-aquatic lifestyle.
