Question

In a bird egg the developing embryo is inside the amnion, which contains fluid. The embryo gets nourishment from the yolk. The chorion lines the inside of the shell and helps protect the embryo. What structures in a human provide the same functions as these structures in the bird egg?

Answer 1

Answer: Placenta

Step-by-step explanation:

Placenta is the outer protective envelope around the developing embryo. It is attached with the lining of the uterus. It has a permeable membrane which allows the entry of oxygen and nutrients to be supplied to the embryo. It helps in getting rid of harmful substances like carbon dioxide and waste from the developing fetus body.
