What else can I help you with?
Which process normally occurs at the placenta?
nutrition for fetus no blood mix thru mother and fueetus
Toxins can enter the fetus by?
blood flow from the mother to the fetus
What is the function of the placental?
it is the interface between the fetus and the mother's blood supply it acts like a filter - supplying nutrients to the fetus and disposing of waste material from the fetus to the mother all of this without actually mixing the blood of the fetus and the mother
What statement best describes the relationship between the blood of a human fetus and the blood of the mother?
Their blood systems are separate, but certain materials pass form one to another.Why? There is no direct mixing of the maternal and fetal blood. The blood systems are separate but certain materials pass from one to another, for example, both food and oxygen pass from mother to fetus.
Do mother and baby share blood?
The mother and baby do not share the same blood circulation during pregnancy. Oxygen and nutrients are transferred from the mother to the baby through the placenta, a temporary organ that develops during pregnancy. The mother's blood and the baby's blood do not mix.
Can a fetus survive when mother is a and fetus is b blood group?
Yes, there is no danger to the fetus is the mother is type A and baby is type B
Oxygenation of fetal blood occurs in the?
Oxygenation of fetal blood occurs in the placenta, where the mother's bloodstream and the fetus's bloodstream come into close proximity but do not mix. Oxygen from the mother's blood diffuses into the fetal blood, while carbon dioxide diffuses from the fetal blood into the mother's blood for elimination.
What does a fetus takes from the mother blood?
The blood is "grown" by the fetus along with the organs and bones. The fetal blood supply is separate from the mother's. The two blood systems interact through the placenta - oxygen and food pass though to the fetal blood from the mother, waste products flow from the fetus to the mother.
What is the source of nutrients in fetal blood?
Blood from the mother is used by the fetus.
How does the fetus get its oxygen?
From the mother's blood via the placenta.
Toxins can harm a developing fetus?
Absolutely YES! Substances of good/bad can be transported from what is inhale by the mother to the fetus by the process of "blood flow from the mother to the fetus" or entering the umbilical cord to the fetus .
How does a developing baby get food and oxygen during the pregnancy?
Baby gets food and oxygen through the umbilical cord. This umbilical cord is attached to the placenta. This placenta is attached to the uterus. In the placenta blood of the mother comes close to the blood of the fetus. There is transfer of food and oxygen to the blood of fetus from the blood of mother. Carbon bi oxide and waste products of metabolism are transferred to the blood of mother from the blood of fetus.
