Is a amniotic egg a characteristic of reptiles?
The amnion is a semi-permeable membrane that retains moisture within the egg, thus preventing it from drying out, but permits the exchange of gasses, thus enabling the developing animal to breathe. With its evolution, it became possible for the amniotes (such as reptiles) to lay their eggs away from water and still successfully reproduce, as all embryos need to develop in a moisture-rich environment. Amphibian eggs lack the amnion, just as all the early tetrapod eggs did, and they could never lay their eggs in a dry environment, as their embryos would die long before they fully developed.
