Placenta: The Placenta is the intimate connection established between the foetal membranes and uterine wall, permitting the diffusion of nourishment from the mother's blood to that of the growing foetus and the disposal of wastes from the blood of the foetus to that of the mother.
Umbilical cord: A cord containing blood vessels connects the placenta with the foetus; this is called the umbilical cord.
