Answer:
The baby snakes would face difficulties in breaking through the shell.
Explanation:
- There are about 3600 different species of snakes, and 70% of them are oviparous, or capable of producing eggs.
- Some snake species may only produce one egg or give birth just once every three years.
- Others, however, can lay as many as 100 eggs at once and only spawn once a year.
- Oblong in form, snake eggs have malleable, rubbery shells.
- Snakes are cold-blooded reptiles, which means they don't need to incubate their eggs, hence they don't have hard shells like bird eggs.
- Water is absorbed by the egg containing the developing embryo, causing the egg to enlarge until the hatchling inside breaks the shell.
Therefore, snake eggs have to be soft.
