CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Through the blood vessels in the umbilical cord, the fetus receives all the necessary nutrition, oxygen, and life support from the mother through the placenta. Waste products and carbon dioxide from the fetus are sent back through the umbilical cord and placenta to the mother’s circulation to be eliminated.

Detailed explanation-2: -The umbilical cord is considered both the physical and emotional attachment between mother and fetus. This structure allows for the transfer of oxygen and nutrients from the maternal circulation into fetal circulation while simultaneously removing waste products from fetal circulation to be eliminated maternally.

Detailed explanation-3: -The umbilical cord forms a connection between placenta and the fetus. This structure is responsible for exchange of nutrients during the gestation.

Detailed explanation-4: -The placenta is a temporary organ that forms in your uterus during pregnancy. It attaches to your uterine wall and provides nutrients and oxygen to your baby through the umbilical cord. Certain conditions of the placenta can cause pregnancy complications.

Detailed explanation-5: -The umbilical vessels carry the fetal blood back and forth to the placenta, with the umbilical vein carrying oxygenated blood with nutrients from the placenta to the fetus and the umbilical arteries transporting deoxygenated blood with waste products from the fetus to the placenta.
