Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fetus receives its nutrition through the placenta, which is connected to the mother's uterine wall and allows for the exchange of nutrients and waste products between the mother's blood and the fetus's blood. The amniotic fluid surrounds and protects the fetus but does not provide nutrition. Monthly nutrition shots are not a common practice and do not provide direct nutrition to the fetus.
