Amniotic Sac

A fluid-filled sac that cushions and protects a growing embryo
Real World Example
Imagine carrying a delicate glass ornament in a backpack as you walk through a crowded street. Just like the backpack provides a protective barrier for the ornament, preventing it from being jostled or broken, the amniotic sac serves a similar purpose for a developing embryo. The backpack is akin to the amniotic sac, the fluid inside acts like the padding that cushions the ornament, and the crowded street represents the external environment, all working together to ensure the embryo's safety and development.
