Solution

The correct option is A Umbilical
Veins are blood vessels that carry blood towards the heart. Most veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the heart; exceptions are pulmonary and umbilical veins, both of which carry oxygenated blood to the heart. The umbilical vein carries oxygenated blood to the placenta.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Umbilical'
