Did amphibians and mammals descend from reptiles?

Reptiles evolved from a group of reptiliomorph amphibians in the Carboniferous period. Mammals evolved from a groupof synapsidreptiles in the Jurassic period.


Mammals and birds are descended from what group of vertebrates?

Mammals and birds are both descended from a group of vertebrates known as archosaurs. This group included early reptiles and gave rise to both dinosaurs (which birds evolved from) and the ancestors of mammals.

Why aren't dinosaurs mammals?

Dinosaurs and mammals evolved from two separate branches of reptiles. Mammals evolved from synapisid reptiles (all of which are not extinct) while dinosaurs along with the modern branches of reptiles evolved from sauropsids. So dinosaurs are more closely related to modern reptiles than they are to mammals. In more recent years scientist tend to agree that birds are in fact a surviving branch of dinosaurs.


Were dinosaurs the only warm blooded reptiles are were there more?

There were more. In the Permian, Triassic, and early Jurassic periods there were mammal-like reptiles from which true mammals evolved, some of which were likely warm blooded.


Did mammals evolve from dinosaurs?

No. Mammals evolved from synapsid reptiles, a group not closely related to dinosaurs. Dinosaurs are more closely related to modern reptiles and birds than they are to mammals.


Why are some mammals that lay eggs classified as mammals?

Monotremes lay eggs, as do reptiles. Monotremes' limbs go outward (rather than downward) from their main body, which is also true for reptiles. Monotremes lack a corpus callosum (which placental mammals have), as do reptiles. Monotremes and reptiles both have cloacas, while placental mammals have separate openings for urination and defecation. This evidence all shows monotremes to be a link between reptiles and mammals, but we now think that monotremes just evolved from an earlier branching from the mammalian tree of lineage than the marsupials and placental mammals evolved from. Monotremes are not a link between reptiles and mammals.


Which group of vertebrates evolved after fish?

Amphibians, then reptiles, birds, and finally mammals!
