amniotic

Unlike other tetrapod vertebrates  reptiles, birds, and mammals , amphibians do not produce amniotic eggs. Therefore, they must lay their eggs in water so they wont dry out. Their eggs are usually covered in a jelly-like substance, like the frog eggs shown in Figure below . The jelly helps keep the eggs moist and offers some protection from predators.
