QUÉ SIGNIFICA AMPHIBIAN EN INGLÉS
Anfibio
Los anfibios son ectotérmicos, vertebrados tetrapod de la clase Amphibia. Los anfibios modernos son todos Lissamphibia. Ellos habitan una amplia variedad de hábitats con la mayoría de las especies que viven dentro de ecosistemas acuáticos terrestres, fóssiles, arbóreos o de agua dulce. Los anfibios suelen comenzar como larvas que viven en el agua, pero algunas especies han desarrollado adaptaciones de comportamiento para evitarlo. Los jóvenes generalmente sufren metamorfosis de la larva con branquias a una forma de respiración aérea adulta con pulmones. Los anfibios usan su piel como superficie respiratoria secundaria y algunas pequeñas salamandras terrestres y ranas carecen de pulmones y dependen enteramente de la piel. Son superficialmente similares a los reptiles pero, junto con los mamíferos y las aves, los reptiles son amniotes y no requieren cuerpos de agua en los que reproducirse. Con sus complejas necesidades reproductivas y pieles permeables, los anfibios son a menudo indicadores ecológicos y en las últimas décadas ha habido un dramático declive en las poblaciones de anfibios de muchas especies alrededor del mundo. Los primeros anfibios evolucionaron en el período devónico a partir de peces sarcopterígenos con pulmones y aletas huesudas, características que fueron útiles para adaptarse a la tierra seca.
definición de amphibian en el diccionario inglés
La primera definición de anfibio en el diccionario es cualquier vertebrado de sangre fría de la clase Amphibia, que típicamente vive en la tierra pero se reproduce en el agua. Sus larvas acuáticas experimentan metamorfosis en la forma adulta. La clase incluye tritones y salamandras, ranas y sapos, y cecilias. Otra definición de anfibio es un tipo de avión capaz de aterrizar y despegar tanto del agua como de la tierra. Anfibio es también cualquier vehículo capaz de viajar tanto en el agua como en la tierra.
