Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The uterine tissue and the chorionic villi jointly form the placenta. Hence it is unique because it develops from two separate individuals the mother and the foetus. When fully developed the placenta is shaped like pancake. There is great intimacy between the foetal and maternal parts in which chorionic villi are bathed in maternal blood. Hence the placenta is called hemochorial placenta.
