1. They are ectothermic vertebrates.
2. Their skin has scales, but no hair or feathers.
3. They have three-chambered hearts (except for alligators and crocodiles, which have four-chambered hearts).
4. They have claws on their toes (except those which do not have legs, such as legless lizards).
5. They are the first animals, in evolution, to develop the amniotic egg. This allows reptiles to lay eggs on land.
6. They are cold blooded, have scales, and lay eggs
7. They almost have a circulatory system like us humans. They have two loops, the pulmonary loop and the systemic loop.
All reptiles have the traits.
Reptiles are all Heterotrophs. All breath air, All have scales, Almost all lay eggs (Boa Constrictors and Rattle Snakes give live birth) All need heat to be active, All are cold-blooded.
They are cold blooded, have scales, and lay eggs
Look to the morphologies of all mammals and see rather easily how closely related they are in comparison to the more distantly related morphologies of all reptiles. Ancestral traits, such as tetropodal arrangement of limbs and then derived differences between mammals and reptiles. Reptiles having scales and mammals having hair.
no all reptiles does not have ribs
Yes, mammals, birds and reptiles are all vertebrates.
Ability to breathe air.
Yes, all Reptiles do have scales.
Turtles are classified as reptiles because they share key characteristics with other reptiles, such as having scales, laying eggs, and being cold-blooded. These traits place them in the same group as other reptiles like snakes and lizards.
No, they are reptiles. ALL turtles are reptiles.
Yes all rattle snakes are reptiles.
all reptiles are cold blooded and are tetrapods
