• These animals hatch from an egg which the mother lays in the environment.
• The embryo feeds on the nutritive stores contained in the yolk of the egg.
• Once it has developed, it hatches, which is when the new individual breaks the shell and emerges from the egg.
•There are two types of eggs:
• Eggs without a shell: these are found in aquatic animals and must be laid in a wet environment or they will dry up.
• Eggs with a shell: they are laid on land so they do not dry up.
Oviparous animals
Toads are oviparous: they lay their eggs in the water, as their eggs do not have shells and would dry up on land.

The structure of the egg
Embryo
Vitelline membrane: this encloses the yolk, which the embryo feeds on.
Amnion: this forms the amniotic sac, which holds the amniotic fluid where the embryo floats.
Membranes: they serve as the egg’s excretory system, collecting waste, and the respiratory system, letting CO2 out and O2 in.
Shell: keeps the embryo from drying out but allows O2 and CO2 to pass through.

• The embryos of these animals develop inside the mother’s uterus.
• The embryo feeds on nutrients that pass from the mother through the placenta.
• When the new individual has developed, it comes out of the mother’s body: this is called birth.
• All mammals, with the exception of monotremes (the platypus and the echidna) and some sharks, are viviparous.
Viviparous animals
Boars are viviparous animals.

The embryo in viviparous animals
Embryo
Placenta: extracts nutrients and oxygen for the embryo from the mother’s blood.
Umbilical cord: connects the embryo to the placenta.
Amnion: forms the amniotic sac, which holds the amniotic fluid where the embryo floats.

• These animals develop inside an egg, but the mother keeps the egg inside her body until it hatches.
• The embryo feeds on the food reserves contained in the egg. When the embryos are fully developed, hatching takes place, just as it does in oviparous animals.
• The young are alive when they come out of the mother.
• Certain sharks, vipers and some insects are ovoviviparous.
Ovoviviparous animals
Many sharks are ovoviviparous.
