No, it isn't. They don't have any ability to regulate their own body temperature - they rely on an external source to raise their temperature to a suitable level.
Reptiles are cold blooded and require the atmospheric heat to regulate their internal body temperature. If the outside temperature were to decrease by 20 c the internal temperature of the reptile would decrease 20C.
Fish and reptiles both regulate their body temperature behaviorally by going to areas where the temperature fits their biochemical needs, eg. sunning on rocks to raise temperature, etc. Some fish and reptiles also hibernate when temperatures get too cold.
Feathers are a unique feature of birds that are not found in living reptiles. Feathers provide insulation, enable flight, and help with courtship displays and camouflage. This characteristic is one of the main distinctions between birds and living reptiles.
Cold-blooded - just like all reptiles.
Reptiles thrive in warm climates due to their ectothermic nature, relying on external heat sources to regulate their body temperature. The tropics provide the ideal warm and consistent temperatures for reptiles to thrive. Antarctica's extremely cold temperatures are not suitable for reptiles to survive due to their inability to generate internal body heat.

Reptiles ONLY have internal fertilization
The three Vertebrate groups that have the same temperature as their surroundings are Fish, Reptiles, and Amphibians. That means they are all cold blooded.
Gills
Dinosaurs were reptiles and like all reptiles, use internal fertilization.
VERY INTERNAL
All reptiles are internal
Snakes are reptiles, and all reptiles lay eggs. That is a basic characteristic of reptiles.
Internal fertilization
One characteristic all reptiles share is that they are all cold-blooded.
internal fertilization
Because.
