PLACENTA
Placenta is composed of: CHORIONIC VESSELS converge toward the umbilical cord
CHORION is covered by AMNINON
CHORION FRONDOSUM (Fetal Component) – derived from TROPHOBLAST 4 Layers of Placental Membrane:
and EXTRAEMBRYONIC MESODERM
o Bordered by CHORIONIC PLATE Endothelial lining of Fetal Vessels
Connective Tissue on Villous Core
DECIDUA BASALIS (Maternal Component) – derived from UTERINE Cytotrophoblastic layer
ENDOMETRIUM Syncytium
o Bordered by DECIDUAL PLATE The Amniotic Fluid
o Contains compartments called COTYLEDONS – maintain its contact with
INTERVILLOUS SPACE through DECIDUAL SEPTA Derived from maternal blood
Function: Produced by amniotic cells
Clear, watery fluid replaced every 3 hours
Exchange of gases (simple diffusion) Normal amount:
Exchange of nutrients o 10 weeks – 30 mL
Transmission of Maternal Antibodies o 20 weeks – 450 mL
