Answer 2

Crocodiles are reptiles, not amphibians, for several reasons.  First, they lay their eggs on the land, not in the water.  The eggs then hatch into a small but fully formed crocodile, whereas amphibians go through a larval stage.  Finally, at all stages the crocodiles require air to breathe, using lungs, whereas amphibians breathe through their skin as well as lungs (and some species do not have lungs at all).
