Does the placenta help form the umbilical cord?
No, they are not. The umbilical cord is an actual cord that connects the baby to the placenta. The placenta is the lining of the uterus that is developed over the course of the pregnancy. The placenta is a "filter" through which the baby's food and oxygen is delivered via the umbilical cord. Once the baby is born, the umbilical cord is clipped and severed. The final, 3rd stage of labor, is the passing of the placenta. That happens 15-30 minutes after the baby is born. The placenta is then checked thoroughly, to ensure that is in intact, and that no pieces are left behind in the uterus. This is VERY important, because if any of the placenta is left in the uterus, it will cause an infection, high fever, can lead to infertility. If not removed, the outcome can be lethal.

Is it an accident if vehicles do not touch?
Is there more to this question than meets the eye? Basically, if vehicles don't touch then it's difficult to see what accident has happened, but of course, if a body has been squeezed between the vehicles, thereby preventing them from touching, then yes, there has been an accident. Answer: Any Insurance company can be claimed for the damage of the vehicle and not the accident. It is up to the investigating agencies to look into the cause of the damage and ascertain if it was damage to accident in contact with what obstacle. It is not necessary that there a visual contact. Accidents/damages can occur even without a contact for insurance claims to be claimed for.
