Detailed explanation-1: -The placenta is an organ that develops in the uterus during pregnancy. This structure provides oxygen and nutrients to a growing baby. It also removes waste products from the baby’s blood. The placenta attaches to the wall of the uterus, and the baby’s umbilical cord arises from it.
Detailed explanation-2: -The primary nutrients crossing the placenta are glucose, lactic acid, free amino acids, free fatty acids, and ketone bodies. Under normal circumstances, it appears that glucose is the primary energy source.
Detailed explanation-3: -Umbilical cord. A rope-like cord connecting the fetus to the placenta. The umbilical cord contains 2 arteries and a vein. It carries oxygen and nutrients to the fetus and waste products away from the fetus.
