A typical protein has four levels of organisation, which are primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structures.
A mutation that result in the replacement of the side chain of an amino acid will affect the tertiary structure of the protein. This is because the tertiary structure of a protein is primarily due to the interactions between the R groups of the amino acids that make up the protein. If the tertiary structure is affected, the function of the protein too will be negatively affected because the function of a protein depend on its tertiary structure.

1. They are both poikilothermic (cold-blooded) animals i.e. their body temperature is dependent on that of the environment's.
2. They both lay eggs externally, although that of amphibians is fertilized after being layed
3. They both possess lungs for gaseous exchange, although, amphibians use gills in water.
4. Both reptiles and amphibians belongs to Chordata i.e. they both possess a vertebrae column (backbone)
