They need water to live.
Explanation:
Water is essential for most amphibians. They're the land animals that retained some aquatic adaptations, and thus require water for many important parts of their life cycle and way of life.
Amphibians need water for reproduction, respiration, feeding, etc. as adults. For example, their eggs are not watertight, so they must be in or near water.
Think about frogs and how, as tadpoles to adults, they live their life in the water.
