What are the differences between dinosaurs and modern repiles?

[Edit]

There are many differances between the two. Dinosaurs were warmblooded, whereas reptiles are coldblooded. Reptiles also have legs that come out at right angles to their body, and a unusual knee structure. Dinosaurs had leg and hip structures close to that of modern mamals in the case of the herbavores and birds in the case of carnivores.
