The aorta
During pregnancy, what happens to the oxygenated blood returned from the placenta via the umbilical vein? A.It flows into the inferior vena cava.
A placenta typically has two umbilical arteries and one umbilical vein. The two arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the fetus to the placenta, while the vein returns oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus. This vascular structure is essential for fetal development and nutrient exchange during pregnancy.
The umbilical cord supplies blood to the baby. The umbilical cord is connected to the placenta and the mother's blood comes via the placenta through the umbilical cord to the baby. The baby receives oxygenated and nutrient rich blood via the umbilical cord.and de-oxygenated and nutrient depleted blood returns to the mother via the umbilical cord.
The umbilical vein carries oxygenated blood away from the placenta and delivers it to the fetus. Oxygenated blood is essential for the baby's growth and development during pregnancy.
The umbilical vein carries oxygenated blood from the fetus to the placenta for nutrient and oxygen exchange.
Aorta
The Pulmonary Vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the Left Atrium.
Veins are the type of blood vessel that drains blood from tissues and returns it to the heart.
