Answer 2

(C) Internal fertilization is a feature that is not seen in reptilia.

Class Reptilia:

• Animals are classified and differentiated based on various terms such as the way of reproduction, type of respiratory system, their habitat, etc.
• One such class of animals is the Repitila, which includes all the reptiles like snakes, worms, etc.
• The common and main feature seen in these animals is that they crawl.
• Another characteristic is that they have cornified skin and a dry-scaled body.
• The scales are epidermal as they are cold-blooded animals and shed their outer cells on a timely basis.
• Direct development implies that the species lay eggs and the offspring of these creatures appear to be their miniature version when they hatch.
• This kind of development is commonly seen in the animals of the class Reptilia.
• However, internal fertilization is a process where the fertilization of an egg occurs inside the body of the creature. This is not seen in the species of Reptilia but can be commonly found in land animals.

Thus, (c) Internal fertilization is not a feature of the species of Reptilia.
