Option D – amphibians may use their skin for gas exchange is the characteristic feature of amphibians that differs from reptiles.

Explanation:

The amphibian skin is moist, thin and marbled and supplied by blood vessels running on its surface. The moisture present in the skin dissolves the oxygen present in its surrounding which is absorbed by the blood vessels. Special glands help the amphibians to keep the skin moist.

The very thick and tough scales present on the reptiles prevent them to absorb oxygen through their skin. Hence, they breathe and respire through their lungs.

Amphibians have three-chambered heart. They do not develop amniotic eggs. Adult amphibians although spend much time on land, they breed only in water due to the absence of amniotic sac .

What piece of evidence supports the viral model presented in viewpoint #2 that viruses are non-living?
mixer [17]
<span>The right anwer is (b). Indeed, some scientists consider viruses as non-living because viruses do not undergo mitosis, which is the usual way living cells reproduce themselves. On the contrary, viruses inoculate their genetic material in a host cell in such a way to force the cell to make a copy of the virus DNA, thus making more viruses, that then kill the host cell and disseminate themselves. In practice the viruses exploits the replication tools of the living cells to replicate themselves, since they lack the machinery and also they lack something resembling cell metabolism, i.e., they do not "eat" or "grow".</span>
