US
/ˈæm.ni.ɑn/
A tough, transparent membrane that forms a closed, fluid-filled sac (the amniotic cavity) surrounding the embryos or fetuses of reptiles, birds, and mammals.
The amnion cushions the developing fetus within a protective pool of amniotic fluid.
In placental mammals, the fetal membrane that lines the amniotic cavity and is continuous with the umbilical cord.
Researchers studied the proteins expressed in the human amnion to understand fetal development.
