Umbilical cord
Fetal blood in carried from the fetus to the placenta via two umbilical arteries in the umbilical cord. This blood is primarily deoxygenated blood that is high in wastes. A single umbilical vein returns oxygenated blood, high in nutrients, from the placenta to the fetus. The vessels are surrounded by mucous connective tissue, a multipotential fetal connective tissue. 10x
