The umbilical cord of a pig contains three primary blood vessels: two umbilical arteries and one umbilical vein. The umbilical arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the fetus to the placenta, while the umbilical vein transports oxygenated blood from the placenta back to the fetus. This vascular structure is crucial for nutrient and gas exchange during fetal development.

Where does the large vein at the base of the umbilical cord go in a pig?
the large vein at the base of the umbilica cord goes to the liver in a pig
Which fetal blood vessels take blood to and from the placenta and to and from the fetus?
umbilical cord
How many vessels are in an umbilical cord?
Two - 1 artery and 2 veins
What tube carriers blood oxygen and nutrients from the placenta to the developing child?
The umbilical cord is made up of three blood vessels: two smaller arteries which carry blood to the placenta and a larger vein which returns blood to the fetus.
What lies between the two umbilical vessels?
Between the two umbilical vessels, which are the umbilical arteries and the umbilical vein, lies the Wharton's jelly. This gelatinous substance provides cushioning and support to the vessels, protecting them from compression and injury during pregnancy. Wharton's jelly also plays a role in the overall structure of the umbilical cord.
