The amniotic sac is pair of membranes, which hold a developing embryo (and later fetus) until shortly before birth.

The outermost layer of the amniotic sac is the chorion. Correct answer: C

The chorion contains the amnion and is part of the placenta. The amnion on the other hand is the inner layer which contains the amniotic fluid and the fetus.
