Here's why:
* Amphibians have a unique life cycle that requires both land and water.
* Eggs: They lay their eggs in water, where they are protected and can develop.
* Larvae: The eggs hatch into larvae (like tadpoles), which live in the water and breathe through gills.
* Metamorphosis: As the larvae grow, they undergo metamorphosis, developing lungs, legs, and other adaptations for life on land.
* Adults: The adult amphibians then live on land but often return to water to mate and lay their eggs.
Examples of Amphibians:
* Frogs
* Toads
* Salamanders
* Newts
