Answer:

The placenta is an organ that develops in your uterus during pregnancy. This structure provides oxygen and nutrients to your growing baby and removes waste products from your baby's blood.

Answer:

(1) The placenta transfers food from the mother’s bloodstream to the fetus thus providing it with all the basic nutrients.

(2) Oxygen from the mother reaches the unborn child through the placenta.

(3) The placenta also purifies the blood of any harmful substance, which might harm the fetal health, by acting as a barrier and providing protection against it.

Let’s play devil’s advocate. What are two arguments you would use to support the claim that medical doctors and veterinarians do
Yuri [45]

One argument could state that veterinarians study multiple fields of the health and disease of mammals, amphibians, birds, reptiles, and fish whereas physicians only study the human body, therefore making it unnecessary for physicians and veterinarians to collaborate since the variation is far too large between a human and the long list of organisms a veterinarian has to study. Variation in brain activity results in a variety of treatments. Another argument regarding location would state. Animals living in the jungle versus a domesticated pet will have variations that ultimately affect the similarities between animals and humans. Although humans are animals, the differences outweigh the similarities between a human and, let's say a frog or even a lion. The location of the animal will affect nearly everything about their brain activity, different diseases they may be exposed to, treatments that are available, etc. Don't get me wrong, I think physicians can learn a lot from veterinarians, but this was for an assignment, so I had to come up with something. This is the best I got. Feel free to tweak it though, I'm sure there are other reasons as to why they don't need to collaborate.
