This is the birth sac that needs to be removed so the baby can start to breathe. If you are talking about the sac that shows on an ultrasound, this is the amniotic sac that contains the 'waters' and is absolutely necessary for the growth of the baby. It is the same thing that the answer above mentions.

How nutrients oxygen and waste are exchanged between the fetus and the mother?

Nutrients, oxygen, and waste are exchanged between the fetus and the mother through the placenta, a temporary organ that develops during pregnancy. The mother's blood containing nutrients and oxygen passes through the placenta, where it comes into close contact with the fetal blood vessels. Through diffusion and active transport processes, nutrients and oxygen are transferred from the mother's blood to the fetal blood, while waste products such as carbon dioxide are transferred from the fetal blood to the mother's blood for elimination.
