This means the baby does not grow inside the motherās body, but instead grows inside an egg that the mother lays. š„ How does this process work? The mother lays one or more eggs. Inside the egg, the baby (called an embryo) begins to grow. The egg protects the baby and gives it food to grow. After some time, when the baby is ready, it breaks the eggshell and comes out. š Examples of oviparous animals: Birds (like chickens, penguins, and parrots) Reptiles (like turtles, crocodiles, and snakes) Fish, amphibians, and insects also lay eggs. š¦ What about dinosaurs? Dinosaurs were oviparous too! The dinosaur moms laid eggs in nests. Inside each egg, a baby dinosaur grew safely. When the baby was ready, it broke the shell with its head or a special part of its mouth and came out. Some were born alone, and others hatched with many brothers and sistersājust like a dinosaur family!St Patrick, the shamrock and the snakes of IrelandWrite simple RCQ for A1-A2 kids using: No Parking Medusa comes from Greek mythology.
