Detailed explanation-1: -The umbilical vein carries oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood from the placenta to the fetus, and the umbilical arteries carry deoxygenated, nutrient-depleted blood from the fetus to the placenta (Figure 2.2).
Detailed explanation-2: -The blood vessel which carries blood rich in carbon dioxide is known as an artery.
Detailed explanation-3: -The umbilical arteries carry deoxygenated fetal blood toward the placenta for replenishment, and the umbilical vein carries newly oxygenated and nutrient-rich blood back to the fetus.
Detailed explanation-4: -Kidney filters the blood to remove these wastes. Blood with a lot of nitrogenous waste enters the kidney through renal artery. This blood after filteration leaves the kidney through renal vein.
