Solution

The correct option is A

are oviparous


Fishes and amphibians lay unfertilized eggs. In these animals fertilization and development of embryo is external. Ovoviviparous animals retain the fertilized eggs and the development of the embryo takes place inside the animal body. In viviparous animals the embryo is implanted in the female body and it derives nourishment from the parent.
