Harmful substances like nicotine can pass from the mother's blood to the baby's blood through the placenta.

However, substances like nicotine can still pass through the placenta and affect the developing baby.


Does Mother's blood flows into the foetus through placenta.True or False?

False. The mothers blood flows through the placenta in vessels next to the foetal blood that flows in separate vessels. Oxygen and nutrients can flow from the mothers blood into the foetus' blood and carbon dioxide and waste products can flow from the foetus' blood to the mother's blood through the vessel membranes, however the two bloods will never actually mix.


Does digested food pass from the mothers blood to the babys blood?

What passes from the mothers blood into the fetus blood?

Nutrients, oxygen, antibodies, and hormones pass from the mother's blood into the fetus's blood through the placenta. The placenta acts as a selective barrier, allowing essential substances to transfer while protecting the fetus from harmful substances. Waste products from the fetus's blood are also transferred back to the mother's circulation for disposal. This exchange is crucial for fetal development and growth.

Fetuses receive nutrients from their mothers through the placenta, which forms a connection between the mother's bloodstream and the fetus. The mother's blood carries oxygen and nutrients, such as glucose and amino acids, which are then transferred across the placenta to the fetus. Waste products from the fetus, like carbon dioxide, are also removed through the placenta into the mother's bloodstream for excretion.
