Explanation

The umbilical cord is the vital connection between the fetus (unborn child) and the placenta, which is attached to the mother's uterine wall. Through this cord, oxygen, nutrients, and blood are delivered to the developing baby, while waste products are removed. The 'unborn' specification is crucial because after birth, this connection is severed.
