Okay, unlike just about every other poster up to this point, I don't have to guess at this answer.
No. Both lizards and dinosaurs are reptiles, but they aren't related beyond that.
Lizards are a specific class of reptiles, both modern and ancient, which do not include dinosaurs... and likewise dinosaurs are a specific class of reptiles (long extinct) which do not include lizards.

No they are not! Dinosaurs weren't lizards. They were reptiles, certainly, but there are other reptiles -- snakes, turtles, crocodiles -- that aren't lizards, and neither were dinosaurs. Lizards crawl on their bellies, because their legs grow out from their bodies.

Aww, why go and spoil a perfect trend. Everyone was having fun pulling answers out of their bum.
I realy wish people wouldn't just guessat answers in reposnse to factual quetsions. There are more than enough pointless questions asking for opinions for those who just want points.
