How is the foetus supplied with oxygen and food in the uterus?
The fetus is supplied with oxygen and nutrients through the placenta, which is connected to the mother's uterine wall. The mother's blood passes through the placenta, allowing oxygen and nutrients to pass from the mother's bloodstream to the fetus. Waste products from the fetus also pass through the placenta into the mother's bloodstream for elimination.
How does the foetus get oxygen from its mother?
The fetus receives oxygen from the mother through the placenta. The mother's blood, high in oxygen, passes through the placenta where it comes into close contact with the fetus's blood, allowing for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. This process ensures that the fetus receives the necessary oxygen for development.
Why are materials exchanged between mother and fetus through the placenta?
placenta
When do fetus start feeding through the placenta?

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.
Nutrients and oxygen are transferred from a mother to her developing fetus through the?
a developing fetus receives nourishment from the placenta, which is burrowed into the uterus
Why is the placenta like an intestine for the fetus?

When does a fetus get food before birth?
