Solution

The correct option is B
External fertilisation and indirect development

Tympanum represents the ear in both amphibians and reptiles. Both these groups are oviparous (egg-laying). They are cold -blooded (poikilotherms) too. However, in amphibians, fertilisation is external, and development could be direct or indirect. On the contrary, reptiles exhibit internal fertilisation and direct development.
