Question

What is the correct answer?

**Question:** Which of the following is NOT a function of the placenta? 1. ⦿ To supply the embryo or fetus with milk. 2. ⭘ To transfer gases to an embryo or fetus. 3. ⭘ To transfer nutrients to an embryo or fetus. 4. ⭘ To remove waste from the embryo or fetus. **Explanation:** This multiple-choice question aims to test the knowledge related to the functions of the placenta. The correct answer, highlighted, indicates that the placenta does not have the function of supplying milk to the embryo or fetus. The placenta plays a crucial role during pregnancy by: - Transferring gases (such as oxygen and carbon dioxide) between the mother and the fetus. - Supplying nutrients from the mother to the fetus to support its growth and development. - Removing waste products from the fetal blood. The placenta does not produce or supply milk; lactation is a function of the mammary glands, which occurs post-birth.
