其實書中並冇詳細講過以上問題.
1.
可能係由於foetus係母體並冇任何渠道去排出排泄物,只能靠umbilical arteries,再透過placenta去到母體既blood capillaries,再運到其他部分排出,所以需要2條umbilical arteries.好似正如對身體有害既要多d渠道排出先會對身體健康.而且有d special case,係得1條umbilical arteries,1條umbilical vein.因人而義.可參考以下website:

我估你可能比心臟果課搞亂左,唔一定arteries就oxgenated blood,唔一定vein就係deoxgenated blood.
All arteries carry oxygenated blood with the exception of the pulmonary artery from the right side of the heart to the lungs, which does not.
Yes. Most arterial blood is oxygenated. There are two exceptions to that rule. One is the pulmonary artery which carries deoxygenated blood. The other is the umbilical vein which also carries deoxygenated blood.
