Reptiles Animals
Reptiles are very common animals in nature. There are about six thousand species and these animals generally live on land. Temperate and warm climate-loving reptiles have an endoskeleton, but some also have an exoskeleton consisting of keratinized scales. The skin of reptiles is hard and has a keratin structure, so skin respiration is not observed. This structure also enables these animals to prevent water loss. Reptiles breathe through the lungs.
The heart of reptiles, whose hearts consist of two auricles and a ventricle, is three-chambered, but the ventricles have a half ventricle. Oxygen-rich and poor blood mixes in the ventricle, and mixed-blood circulates throughout the body. Reptiles are cold-blooded creatures and hibernate. Internal fertilization and external development are observed in these animals. To minimize water loss, nitrogenous excretion waste is uric acid. The most familiar representatives in nature are crocodiles, lizards, and snakes. The hearts of crocodiles are four-chambered and rich and poor blood do not mix in the heart of crocodiles.
