By external it means that the process of fertilization does not happen within the body by outside, thus EXTERNAL.

Fishes and most amphibians (frogs, toads, etc.)
As with most amphibians the fertilization is external. The female releases the eggs and the male fertilizes them. Amphibians, even toads, need water to reproduce.
External!External fertilization takes place in fishes. This means that the sperm cell of a male is linked together with the egg cell of a female in the external bodies of the individual fish.
Arthropods reproduce sexually . Fertilization is mostly internal but in some species it is indirect . In most arthropods fertilization is direct . Most arthropods are oviparous i.e. they lay eggs . Metamorphosis takes place .
External fertilization and development
Most fish have external fertilization. External fitilization is when the outside of a female body.
Echinoderms typically reproduce sexually, with most species having separate sexes and external fertilization. However, some echinoderms can also reproduce asexually through processes such as fragmentation or cloning.
internal
Internal fertilization .
Sea urchins primarily reproduce sexually, with most species engaging in external fertilization. During spawning, they release eggs and sperm into the water, where fertilization occurs. Some species can also reproduce asexually through regenerative processes, but sexual reproduction is the dominant method for population growth.
Most animals reproduce sexually, where a male and female come together to produce offspring. Common methods include internal fertilization, where sperm fertilizes eggs inside the female's body, and external fertilization, where eggs and sperm are released into the environment to meet and fertilize outside the body.
