C-Section Question

Can anyone here tell me how the placenta is removed from the uterus during a c-section delivery? Is it cut away, pulled away? Does it detatch by itself once the uterus is cut or once the cord is cut?

If anyone knows of a good website that describes this process, can you point me in the right direction?

Thank you!
