A function of the amniotic fluid is that it cushions the embryo. Amniotic fluid serves to protect the developing fetus by providing a cushioning effect, helping to prevent injury from external pressure or impacts. Additionally, it facilitates movement and development, but it does not directly nourish the embryo or hold sperm.
