Difference between mammals and reptiles

In the first, differentiation into white and gray matter is already visible. Animals have all the senses. The organ of vision is poorly developed.

Reptiles

The breathing process of reptiles is due to the lungs. The circulatory system has 2 circles of blood circulation, but due to the three-chambered heart and the presence of the dorsal aorta, mixed blood is supplied to a number of organs. Reptiles are cold-blooded animals.

The digestive system is better differentiated compared to amphibians, but primitive compared to mammals. Reproduction takes place by laying eggs or ovoviviparity.
