Detailed explanation-1: -Oviparous animals are those that lay eggs, with little or no other embryonic development within the mother. This is the reproductive method of most fish, amphibians, reptiles, all birds, and the monotremes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Birds and lizards are oviparous. A chicken is a good example of an oviparous animal, since females lay eggs and then keep them warm and safe until they hatch. In fact, all birds are oviparous, as are most fish, reptiles, and insects.

Detailed explanation-3: -Both amphibians and reptiles come from eggs, but amphibian eggs need to stay moist or wet as they develop. Most amphibian eggs are laid in water. Reptile eggs need to stay dry, and all reptiles lay eggs on land, often burying them.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fish and amphibians produce a lot of eggs when reproducing because they are fertilized externally; the large amount of eggs laid acts almost like an insurance policy to increase the chances that some will survive. A female fish or amphibian will typically release eggs in the water where males can then fertilize them.

Detailed explanation-5: -Oviparous animals are called Hatching animals. Oviparous animals are born by hatching out of an egg. Oviparous animals are those that reproduce by laying eggs. They include animals like birds, most reptiles, most amphibians, fish, and the majority of arthropods.
