What provides nourishment for the human embryo?
The mother does. The embryo attaches to the uterine lining (called implantation) then secretes an enzyme to breakdown the cells of the lining as it burrows into the uterus. Maternal uterine cells then develop and surround the entire embryo, soon maternal blood vessels unite with the embryo to nourish it and remove waste products. This occurs about one week after fertilization and will provide nourishment throughout the first trimester until the embryo reaches the fetal stage at which time the placenta takes over through the umbilical cord.

How are waste products of the embryo removed?
through the umbilical cord
What are the three purposes that a placenta serves for an embryo?
reproduction, gets rid of waste and nurishes
What substance is a waste that would normally diffuse across the placenta from the embryo to the mother?

Where does the embryo of the mammal receive its nutrients from?
