Unlike oviparity, where animals lay eggs, viviparous animals give birth to live young after the embryos develop inside a womb with the help of a placenta. This article explores the definition, classification, examples, unique characteristics and behaviors, evolutionary aspects, mating and fertilization, prenatal development, labor and birth, as ...
