though tortoise lives on land as well as in water, it cannot be included in class- amphibian

Answer 1

✩ HI FRIEND !!! ✩

Ya i agree with you dear !!! Tortoise lives on land as well as water - but it is not considered as amphibian because :

<> It is a reptile - there is so many differences.

<> But it is not a amphibian - so many things that it is amphibian.

<> Reptiles were the world's first truly terrestrial vertebrates.

<> All reptiles have scaly skin that can withstand dessication and lay eggs with hard shells, therefore they are not tied to the water like their relatives, the amphibians. 

<> Since they can live on land, they also have an expanded lung system.
