Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Amniotic fluid displaces blood, thereby reducing oxygen, nutrients, and waste exchange; however, it also introduces antigens, cells, and protein aggregates that trigger inflammation, coagulation, and the immune response in the bloodstream. Fat, bacteria, and air emboli do not trigger an immune response.
