The outer cells of a blatocyst become the placenta, an organ that offers protection and nourishment.

Placenta, aka afterbirth, is an organ found in a female body that forms around the baby in order to protect and feed it. It provides nourishment for the fetus, keeps it warm, eliminates any infections that may occur, and overall protects the developing baby.
