Amphibia
Amphibia is a diverse class of vertebrates that includes frogs, toads, salamanders, and caecilians. These cold-blooded animals typically undergo a metamorphic process, transitioning from aquatic larvae to semi-aquatic or terrestrial adults. Amphibians are characterized by moist, permeable skin that allows gas exchange, enabling them to breathe through their skin in addition to their lungs. They play essential roles in ecosystems as predators and prey, contributing to biodiversity. Amphibians are found in various habitats, from freshwater bodies and damp forests to arid deserts, showcasing their adaptability to diverse environments.
