The front.
What other uses is umbilical cord used for?

How does the foetus get its protein and vitamins?
Through placental nutrition. The placenta, which is attached to the uterine wall on one side and the umbilical cord on the other, gets nutrients from the mother's blood. It is then transferred through the umbilical cord to the fetus.
What carries oxygenated blood to the fetus?
it depends where about you mean; the pulmonary veins, coming from the lungs, firstly pass just-oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. after that the arteries (like the aorta) pass the highly oxygenated blood from the left side of the heart to the body parts. (this is most likely the answer you are looking for) when the organs have taken all the oxygen out of the blood and replaced it with deoxygenated blood. the deoxygenated blood moves back to the right side of the heart where it is pumped back to the lungs for reoxygenation!
How are the placenta and the umbilical cord related?
The umbilical cord is attached to the developing fetus at the navel, and it has two main blood vessels in it; the umbilical artery and the umbilical vein. These vessels form a network of capillaries at the placenta, which is the temporary organ on the wall of the mother's uterus which forms during pregnancy. In the placenta, the mother's blood vessels also narrow to capillaries. The baby's capillaries and the mother's capillaries come side by side, and in that way metabolic wastes diffuse from the baby's blood to the mother's blood so her body can excrete them, and the baby's blood picks up O2 and nutrients from the mother's blood. The umbilical cord is the connection between the baby and the mother, and the placenta is the area in a pregnant woman's uterus which is the site of exchange of various wastes and nutrients between mother and child. The baby's blood and the mother's blood, however, never directly mixes. Everything is accomplished via diffusion between the capillaries in the placenta.
Is the naval located on the anterior side of the body?
Yes, your belly (including its "button") are on the anterior side.
Where does the umbilical cord go after it enters the baby's body?
The umbilical cord enters the fetus via the abdomen, at the point which (after separation) will become the umbilicus (or navel). Within the fetus, the umbilical vein continues towards thetransverse fissure of the liver, where it splits into two. One of these branches joins with the hepatic portal vein (connecting to its left branch), which carries blood into the liver. The second branch (known as the ductus venosus) allows the majority of the incoming blood (approximately 80%) to bypass the liver and flow via the left hepatic vein into the inferior vena cava, which carries blood towards the heart. The two umbilical arteries branch from the internal iliac arteries, and pass on either side of the urinary bladder before joining the umbilical cord.
What runs on either side of the urinary bladder in the fetal pig?
the umbilical artery the umbilical artery
Is port on the left side?
The port side of a vessel is indeed the left side as you look forwards on nthe vessel.
What are signs that an embryo has attached to the placenta?
The embryo and placenta grow side by side and are attached via the umbilical cord - the placenta attaches to the uterine wall as it develops after the embryo implants in the uterine lining. Some women have spotting and slight cramps when the embryo attaches to the uterine lining.
What is the port side of a vessel?
If you are standing in the center of the vessel facing to the front the port side is on your left and the starboard side is on your right.
