Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Modern amphibians are united by several unique traits. They typically have a moist skin and rely heavily on cutaneous (skin-surface) respiration. They possess a double-channeled hearing system, green rods in their retinas to discriminate hues, and pedicellate (two-part) teeth.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are four stages in the life cycle of amphibians: Egg, tadpole, young frog, and adult frog.

Detailed explanation-3: -Amphibians are said to live a double life because they often live in water and on land at different stages of their life. They are born in water and the young are adapted to aquatic life only. As they mature, they transform through a process called metamorphosis and develop lungs and limbs, losing their gills and fins.
