Why should the placenta be checked after birth?
To make sure it's all complete and that none of the placenta is left inside the woman.
What causes umbilical cord to attach on side of placenta?
The umbilical cord connects to the
Placenta once it is in form to attach
What are 2 different jobs of the placenta?
It acts as a combination lung, kidney, and stomach.
It exchanges Oxygen and nutrients from mother to baby,
waste products from baby to mom,
and keeps the two blood supplies separate.
The endometrium begins to form shortly after the fertilized egg (blastocyst) implants into the uterine wall (endometrium). This typically occurs 3-4 days after fertilization. After implantation, the endometrium is called the Decidua, and basalis is the portion directly under the blastocyst. The Basalis joins the chorionic villi to make the placenta.
APEX~ a few days after fertilization
First of all, are you serious?
Secondly, whatever floats your boat.
When does the placenta attach itself to the uterus?
look up "pre-eclampsia", that might help you on your quest for knowledge
Which gas passes from the mother's blood to the fetus's blood through the placenta?
During pregnancy carbon dioxide passes from the mothers blood to the baby's blood because the mother breathes the carbon dioxide in. It then travels around the body (Respiration) and the mother just replaces it with oxygen like normal.
I think this is right and hope its helps :)
Why does the stump protrude after umbilical cord falls off?
The developing fetus is changing in size and shape, some more than others. Since it is not directly attached to the uterine wall, it can move about within the amniotic fluid of the womb, and can assume a variety of orientations. The umbillical cord has to be able to remain connected despite these positional changes, and to provide oxygen to the fetus as it moves outward through the birth canal during labor. Once the baby leaves the womb, the umbilical cord is cut, and the remaining cord is removed (part of the afterbirth).
How long does it take for the placenta to grow?
The placenta develops from specialized cells of the embryo, which forms after conception ( becoming pregnant). The placenta grows along with the baby and reaches approximately 4cm in thickness and 18 cm in diameter near the time for delivery.( after 37 weeks of pregnancy). It grows because of its rich blood supply, and where this is interrupted, placental growth ( hence also the babys growth) slows giving a small baby and placenta. The placenta actually moves and sometimes can block the outcoming baby- this is now picked up early by scans. Hope it helps. Ravi
Which process normally occurs at the placenta?
nutrition for fetus no blood mix thru mother and fueetus
What happens if your placenta is too low?
This is called Placenta previa and it means that they will have to give you a c-section, because the placenta would be delivered before the baby and that is not a good thing so they play it safe by doing the c-scection. It also depends on how far you are. If you are not that far along then it is a chance that the placenta will move up.
What happens when whole placenta is left in body after birth?
I am assuming you do not know how a placenta looks like. It's not just a thin cord. It's pretty large, not something you can easily forget to "remove". I can't imagine a doctor forgetting to remove that. And if the doctor does forget, the patient will lose a lot of blood, and then would probably die.

What are substances that pass through the placenta that can harm the embryo?
Some substances are filtered but the reason some might get through is that the placenta is connected to your baby through you so in affect any harmful substances you have eg alcohol the baby will also have
no they do not. Mammals are divided into three groups; monotremes, marsupials, and placental mammals.
Yes, they do because they belong to infraclass Placentalia.
Why is the umbilical cord clamped?
The umbilical cord, which connects the placenta to the baby, needs to be cut so that the baby's blood supply can be secured within the baby's body, and the now dead placenta can be disposed of.
