Detailed explanation-2: -The amnion, a thin ectodermal membrane lined with mesoderm, grows to enclose the embryo like a balloon. It is filled with a clear fluid, which is generated from many sources, such as the fetal skin, the amnion itself, the fetal kidneys, and possibly the fetal vessels.

Detailed explanation-3: -The amnion is a membrane that closely covers the human and various other embryos when first formed. It fills with amniotic fluid, which causes the amnion to expand and become the amniotic sac that provides a protective environment for the developing embryo.
