Best Answer

Ovoviviparous - note that the third letter is an 'o', not an 'i' - means producing young by means of eggs that are hatched within the body of the parent - as in some snakes.

This is different from

* Oviparous - which means producing young by means of eggs that are hatched after they have been laid by the parent

and * Viviparous - which means producing live young that have developed within the body of the parent
