Characteristics

Common external features of a reptile.

Reproduction

Most reptiles reproduce sexually. All reproductive activity occurs with the cloaca, the single exit/ entrance at the base of the tail where waste is also eliminated. Most reptiles, however, have copulatory organs, which are usually retracted or inverted and stored inside the body. Most reptiles lay amniotic eggs covered with leathery or calcareous shells.
