Explanation:

In Darwin's theory survival of the fittest, he believed species adapt or change within their environment. So I believe lizards living in a valley would be more safe to lay their eggs but lizards living in the mountains would be viviparous because of the non-predicted and unsafe environment which could harm the better chances of development of the offspring.
