A cross-sectional schematic depicts three vessels within the umbilical cord: one large umbilical vein (UV, red) and two smaller umbilical arteries (UA, blue) embedded in pale Wharton’s jelly, a mucous connective tissue. In anatomy and obstetric histology, this extraembryonic anatomical structure shows a hierarchy of blood vessels within the cord that supports fetoplacental circulation, delivering oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood via the UV and returning deoxygenated blood via the UAs. The site represented is the cord between the fetus and placenta.
