Despite the fact that the female lays the eggs and the young develop outside her body, since the sperm and the egg combine inside the female, internal fertilization takes place.

I hope this helps you! (:

Like all other reptiles, crocodiles undergo internal fertilization.

Internal fertilization is defined as a union of male sperm and female gg inside the body of a female. The male introduces sperms inside the body of female where it unites with egg and fertilize, later on female lays eggs which ultimately hatch into young ones.
