A. The endometrium is the inner lining of the uterus that supports the embryo after implantation, but it does not provide direct fetal nutrition or secrete hormones for fetal development.

B. The placenta is the organ that provides fetal nutrition, gas exchange, and waste removal. It also secretes hormones such as human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), progesterone, and estrogen, which are essential for maintaining pregnancy and supporting fetal development.

C. The blastocyst is the early stage of the embryo that implants into the endometrium, but it does not provide fetal nutrition or secrete pregnancy-regulating hormones.

D. The myometrium is the muscular layer of the uterus responsible for contractions during labor, but it does not provide fetal nutrition or secrete hormones.

A. Sodium, potassium, carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins: Sodium and potassium are micronutrients, not macronutrients.

B. Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and water: Carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins are macronutrients, but water is not classified as a macronutrient. This option is partially correct but includes water, which is not a macronutrient.

C. Nucleic acids, carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins: Nucleic acids are not classified as macronutrients; carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins are.

D. Carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins, but not water: Carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins are macronutrients, and excluding water is correct since water is not a macronutrient.
