Solution

The correct option is B Amniotic cavity
The amnion is a bilayered membranous sac which surrounds and protects the embryo, enclosing the amniotic cavity (amnion). It is the first among the three embryonic cavities (amnion, chorion and yolk sac) to develop.
So the correct option is 'Amniotic cavity'.
