  2. Chorionic villi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorionic_villi

    The chorionic villi are at first small and non-vascular. 13–15 days: trophoblast only [1] Secondary: The villi increase in size and ramify, while the mesoderm grows into them. 16–21 days: trophoblast and mesoderm [1] Tertiary: Branches of the umbilical artery and umbilical vein grow into the mesoderm, and in this way the chorionic villi are ...

  3. Chorion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorion

    Placenta with attached fetal membranes (ruptured at the margin at the left in the image), which consists of the chorion (outer layer) and amnion (inner layer).. The part of the chorion that is in contact with the decidua capsularis undergoes atrophy, so that by the fourth month scarcely a trace of the villi is left.

    The chorionic membrane is a fibrous tissue layer containing the fetal blood vessels. [4] Chorionic villi form on the outer surface of the chorion, which maximise surface area for contact with maternal blood. [4] The chorionic villi are involved in fetal-maternal exchange. [10]

  7. Placentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placentation

    In humans, the placenta develops in the following manner. Chorionic villi (from the embryo) on the embryonic pole grow, forming chorion frondosum. Villi on the opposite side (abembryonic pole) degenerate and form the chorion laeve (or chorionic laevae), a smooth surface. The endometrium (from the mother) over the chorion frondosum (this part of ...

    From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.

    Image showing trophoblast differentiated into the two layers of cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast during implantation. It is the outer layer of the trophoblasts and actively invades the uterine wall, during implantation, rupturing maternal capillaries and thus establishing an interface between maternal blood and embryonic extracellular fluid, facilitating passive exchange of material ...
