Summary Introduction

To name: The extra-embryonic membranes that are present in reptiles and mammals and describe their functions.

Introduction: Fertilization is a process in which haploid male gamete (sperm) fuses with the haploid female gamete (egg or ovum) that result in the formation of a diploid zygote. After the fertilization process, cleavage, gastrulation, and organogenesis take place, which results in the development of the diploid zygote into an embryo.
