The early success of reptiles was due to their scaly skin, which reduced water loss and allowed them to live on land. Furthermore, the development of the amniotic egg enabled them to reproduce away from water, while their ectothermic nature allowed them to thrive in various environments. These adaptations collectively contributed to their ability to colonize terrestrial habitats successfully.
