An amniotic egg has four extra embryonic membranes. The "Amnion" is found in all vertebrate eggs, even non-amniotes, and "Allows for gas exchange" for the growing embryo. The "Chorion" is the outermost membrane that sits right next to the shell and "Provides a protective cushion" for the growing embryo. The "Yolk sac" connects to the end of the gut tube and has two functions: "Provides nutrients and aids in gas exchange". The "Allantois" is a sac filled with fluid that surrounds the embryo.
