Components of the placenta and AM. The AM and the chorion are the two layers of the placenta. The epithelial layer, basal membrane, compact layer, fibroblast layer, and sponge layer are components of AM. The epithelial surface of AM is in con-tact with the fetus, and the chorionic layer is in contact with the maternal uterus.
