The Placenta

The Placenta Allows female mammals to carry the young inside their bodies during early development. During pregnancy, the developing foetus receives all its nutrients via the placenta. All the waste products in the foetus’s blood are removed via the placenta. The placenta also produces hormones.

The Placenta

The Placenta

The Placenta The placenta consists of thousands of tiny branched fingers of tissue called CHORIONIC VILLI these project into the endometrium. The maternal blood vessels surrounding the chorionic villi break down forming maternal blood sinuses
