Question

Why some oviparous animals living on land like Hens or Birds lay lesser eggs as

compared to Fishes / Frogs living in water?

Answer 1

The reason for this is that water supports the creation of a lot of eggs.

The medium water is the main cause for laying so many eggs.

Whereas, the oviparous animals on land don’t get much support from the land when they are laying eggs.

This is the reason why the water animals are capable of laying many eggs whereas the normal animals cannot do so.

Answer 2

HEY!!

▶Some oviparous animals living on land like hens or birds lay less eggs as compared to fishes frogs living in water because Frog and fishes lay eggs in hundreds because most of the eggs layed by them becomes fuse as they are covered only by a boundary of a jelly like substance while others flow away, many others are eaten by other fishes and amphibians and the rest are destroyed.

▶So, the chances of survival of less eggs is always there.

▶But this case is not happened with the hens and birds and the chances of the survival of their offspring is very much than that of frogs and fishes.
