Endocrine Activity of Extraembryonic Membranes Extends beyond Placental Amniotes [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BackgroundDuring development, all amniotes (mammals, reptiles, and birds) form extraembryonic membranes, which regulate gas and water exchange, remove metabolic wastes, provide shock absorption, and transfer maternally derived nutrients.
