General Characters, Reptiles represent the first class of vertebrates, fully adapted for life in dry places on land They have, no Obvious diagnostic characterises ‘of their own that, immediately separate them from other classes of, vertebrates. The characters of reptiles are in fact a, combination of characters that are found in fish and, amphibians on one hi and in birds and mammals, ‘on the other. The class name refers to the mode of, locomotion (L., repere or repaun, to creep oF crawl),, and the study of reptiles is called Herpetology (Oty, , herpeton, reptiles). =, Predominantly terre: creeping or burrowing,, mostly carnivorou! r-breathing, cold-blooded,, s and tetrapodal vertebrates., y symmetrical and dit, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , vi, , , , , , , , , , sible into 4, , , , .
