Zygote Yolk Sac, Chorion, Placenta Confusion!

What exactly is a chorion? what's a placenta?

the umbilical vessels connect the fetus to the yolk sac? is the yolk sac the placenta?

Default This is how I remember

Chorion(outer layer layer of trophoblast) with decidua(endometrium ) >>> placenta


Part of Yolk sac is internalized by embryo and becomes lined by endoderm to form primitive gut and rest of yolk sac by vitellointestinal duct .. Eventually VI duct n remnants of yolk sac become a part of umbilical cord.
