Problems with the Formation of the Chorion Would Affect ________

Question

Problems with the formation of the chorion would affect ________.
A) the embryo's ability to produce blood cells
B) formation of the limbs
C) the embryo's ability to derive nutrition from the mother
D) lung formation
E) None of the answers are correct.

Accepted Answer

The chorion is a vital tissue that develops from the outer layer of cells in the embryo, and plays a crucial role in the exchange of nutrients, oxygen, and waste products between the embryo and the mother. If there are problems with the formation of the chorion, it could affect the embryo's ability to derive nutrition from the mother, leading to developmental problems and even fetal death. Problems with the chorion would not directly affect blood cell production or limb formation, and lung formation occurs later in development.
