Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During stage three of labor, the uterus expels the placenta, which is also known as the afterbirth. This is achieved through contractions that help to detach the placenta from the uterine wall and push it out of the body. It is important for the placenta to be expelled completely to prevent complications such as infection or hemorrhage.
