a group of cold-blooded animals that have scaly skin.
A member of the class Reptilia. Reptiles are generally cold-blooded (cannot maintain their internal body temperature except by basking, eating and so on), egg-laying, land-based and have a scaly or even armoured skin. They were among the first animals to live exclusively on land, and have been very successful throughout their history. The class includes crocodiles, alligators, tortoises, turtles, lizards and snakes; until 65 million years ago it also included dinosaurs, pterosaurs and many marine reptiles such as ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs.
A group of cold-blooded Animals including the Snakes.
Cold blooded vertebrate with lungs and outer covering of horny scales or plates.
any cold-blooded vertebrate of the class Reptilia including tortoises turtles snakes lizards alligators crocodiles and extinct forms
a kind so a reptillian bird is acceptable
an animal that has scaly skin and lays eggs
an organism in the kingdom Animalia and the class Reptilia
a vertebrate animal with a backbone that has tough, dry skin covered with horny scales
the class of vertebrates which includes snakes, lizards and turtles. Characterized by being cold-blooded, egg-laying and possessing skin with bony plates or scales.
an animal that lives on land, lays eggs, and is cold-blooded
An ectothermic (cold-blooded), air breathing animal with scales and a backbone; includes snakes, lizards, turtles, etc.
a cold-blooded creature that has scales instead of skin.
A cold-blooded vertebrate that lays eggs and has scales or plates on its skin.
Animals that are vertebrates, breath air, and are covered in scales. This includes snakes and lizards.
Any of a group of cold-blooded vertebrates that crawl on their bellies, as snakes, or creep on short stubby legs, as lizards, crocodiles, alligators, and turtles.
Reptiles do not have feathers, fur or mammary glands like birds or mammals. Reptilians are mostly distinguished from moisture dependant amphibians by having a protective scaly skin, no aquatic larval stage, internal fertilization and an egg with a protective shell.
Any vertebrate of the class Reptilia; cold-blooded tetrapods that are air-breathing at all stages of development. Range, Pennsylvanian to present.
skins from snakes, turtles and lizards used to make handbags. Reptile is distinguishable by its scaly pattern and texture. Many laws protect endangered reptiles whose skins are used to make illegal bags.
a class of animals that includes crocodilians as well as turtles, snakes, and lizards
any cold-blooded animal with vertebrate that crawls or creeps, such as the turtle
An animal that is cold-blooded, and has scaly skin, and creeps or crawls on the ground. Snakes, turtles, and lizards are all reptiles.
any of various cold-blooded, usually egg-laying vertebrates of the class Reptilia, such as a snake, lizard, crocodile, turtle, or dinosaur, having an external covering of scales or horny plates and breathing by means of lungs.
Any cold-blooded vertebrate of the class Reptilia, comprising the turtles, snakes, lizards, crocodilians, amphisbaenians, tuatara, and various extinct members including the dinosaurs.
Any of a class of vertebrates that regulates its body temperature externally, has dry, glandless skin covered with scales, breathes through lungs and lays large eggs that develop on land.
One of the class of animals that are cold-blooded and covered with scales. Most reptiles lay eggs.
Members of the class reptilia. Reptiles are characterized by thick skin that has scutes or scales. Reptiles tend to be terrestrialy based, and do not require water for their normal life cycle.
Any of various ectothermic (cold-b...
any of a class (Reptilia) of air-breathing vertebrates that include the alligators and crocodiles, lizards, snakes, and turtles with a body usually covered with scales or bony plates.
An egg-laying, cold-blooded animal with smooth, leather skin.
Any of the cold blooded, largely dry land chordates of the class Reptilia. The cool wetlands of the BWCA are not particularly hospitable to reptiles, whose presence is marked by three species of turtle (only one at all common), three small snakes, and no lizards (or crocs or gators, for that matter).
Reptiles (meaning"to creep") are a group of animals that have scales (or modified scales), breathe air, and usually lay egg. The term reptile is loosely defined in everyday English to mean scaly, cold-blooded, egg-laying animals. In cladistics (a way of classifying life forms), the reptiles are more strictly defined and include the common ancestors of the turtles, lepidosaurs (lizards, snakes, tuataras), and archosaurs (crocodilians, dinosaurs, and birds). The maintenance of body temperature (cold- vs. warm-blooded) is not a factor in this classification, but skull and egg structure are.
Reptiles are a group of animals that have scales, breathe air, are cold-blooded, and usually lay egg. Lizards, snakes, turtles and dinosaurs are reptiles.
Reptiles are tetrapods and amniotes, animals whose embryos are surrounded by an amniotic membrane, and members of the class Sauropsida.
