Answer:
Reptiles include alligators, crocodiles, turtles, and snakes. Amphibians include salamanders, toads, and frogs. One difference between the two is the structure of their outer skin. In contrast, the eggs of amphibians lack a hard outer covering and, thus, must be laid in water or in damp places.
