Correct Answer is B

Explanation

“Placenta.” The placenta is the structure that provides oxygen and nutrients to the growing fetus and removes waste products from the fetus’s blood.
Choice A is incorrect because the umbilical arteries carry deoxygenated blood and waste products from the fetus to the placenta.
Choice C is incorrect because amniotic fluid provides a cushion for the fetus and helps maintain a constant temperature in the uterus but does not provide nutrition.
Choice D is incorrect because the decidua is the lining of the uterus during pregnancy and does not provide nutrition to the fetus.
