Lizards, along with tuataras, are lepidosaurs. Dinosaurs, along with crocodiles, are archosaurs. They differ by the presence or absence of some skull fenestras and bones. They also differ in foot and teeth structure. Lepidosaurs shed there skin all at once, regurlarly. Archosaurs have a gizzard.
Both groups form the Diapsids, which have an ossified sternum and two temporal fenestras. They also share characteristics with turtles, mammals, amphibian and fishes. In short, they have blood, eyes, jaws, four legs with fingers, lungs, lay amniotic eggs, and many, many more similarities.
Both share a scaly, cold blooded, sprawling, egg-laying ancestor. Both groups later evolved traits that diverge from this ancestor.
