Hi there dear user... :)

⬇ANSWER⬇

Both snake and turtle have been placed by taxonomists in class Raptilia of phylum Chordata. This is done because of the following features;

i) skin without glands;

ii) three-chambered (infact incompletely four chambered) heart;

iii) respiration through lungs;

iv) hard shelled eggs;

v) embryo protected by extra embryonic membranes.

Hope this helps!!! ^_^
