no, the umbilical cord is the babies lifeline essentially. it provides the food, vitamins, and oxygen the baby needs to survive.
The umbilical cord delivers oxygen and nutrients to the fetus and removes wastes.
Yes, but is it totally unrealistic to expect the fetus to survive.
The umbilical cord functions as a life support system for an embryo or fetus. It attaches to the placenta which is attached to the mother and transfers blood and nutrients from mother to child.
A fetus is a fetus until it is born at which time the umbilical is cut and it becomes a child. An other argument is that the foetus ceases to be a fetus at the time it is a viable human being and can live without the mothers support.
The fetus is connected to its mother by an umbilical cord. The mother's blood carries nutrients through the umbilical cord to the fetus and carries away wastes from the fetus.
With mammals, the fetus has a connection by its umbilical cord to an organ of the mother, called the placenta. Blood passes through the umbilical cord to the fetus, carrying food and oxygen. The umbilical cord is attached to the fetus at a point you will later call your navel or belly button.
The function of the umbilical vein is to deliver oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus. From the placenta, the umbilical vein courses through the liver via the ductus venosus (fetal shunt), connecting then to the inferior vena cava.
The umbilical cord, which carries oxygenated blood to the fetus and waste away from the fetus. The belly button is where the cord was attached to the developing baby.
No, but thankfully it is also not possible. During pregnancy, the umbilical cord connects the fetus to the mother and is held within the uterus, which is sealed until birth.
The umbilical cord can prevent drugs from reaching the fetus.
The placenta is connected with the umbilical cord and then to the fetus.
The umbilical cord supplies the fetus' oxygen.
