5. fetal circulation: oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood from placenta carried to
fetus via umbilical vein ’ half enters Ductus venosus (allows blood to bypass
the liver) ’carried to inferior vena cava ’ RA ’ RV ’ Ductus arteriosus
(conducts some blood from the pulmonary artery to the aorta [bypassing the
lungs/fetal pulmonary circulation]) ’ aorta. Other half enters liver/portal vein
’ RA ’ Foramen ovale (allows blood to bypass pulmonary circulation by
entering the left atria directly from the right atria since there is no gas
exchange in fetal lung) ’ LA ’ LV ’ aorta. Illustrated here.
6. Three shunts in fetal circulation: 1. Ductus venosus
2. Foramen ovale
3. Ductus Arteriosus
7. ductus venosus: connects the umbilical vein to the inferior vena cava,
bypassing the liver
8. foramen ovale: connects the two atria in the fetal heart
- Shunts O2 rich blood away from useless lungs

of physical and physiological characteristics of a fetus.

and congenital defects in a fetus by removing and analyzing a sample of the
fetal portion of the placenta (The chorion)
