Solution

The correct option is A Amnion
The amnion is a membrane that closely covers the embryo when first formed. It fills with the amniotic fluid which causes the amnion to expand and become the amniotic sac which serves to provide a protective environment for the developing embryo or fetus. It also protects the external injury.
So the correct option is A.
