multiple choice
1. which of the following phases of human lungdevelopment is characterized bytheformation of a capillary
network around airway passages?
a. pseudoglandular
b. saccular
c. alveolar
d. canalicular
ANS: d
the canalicular phase follows thepseudoglandular phase, lasting from approximately 17 weeks to26 weeks of
gestation.thisphaseis so named becauseof theappearanceof vascular channels, or capillaries, which begin to
grow by forming a capillary network around the air passages. during thepseudoglandular stage, which begins
at day 52and extendsto week 16 of gestation, the airway system subdivides extensively and the conducting
airway system develops, ending with theterminal bronchioles. the saccular stage of development, which takes
place from weeks 29 to 36 of gestation, is characterized bythedevelopment of sacs that later become alveoli.
during thesaccular phase, a tremendous increase in the potential gas- exchanging surface area occurs. the
distinction between the saccular stage and thealveolar stage is arbitrary. the alveolar stage stretches from 39
weeks of gestation to term. this stage is represented by the establishment of alveoli.
ref: pp. 3-5
2. regarding postnatal lung growth, byapproximately what agedomost of thealveoli that will be present in the
lungs for life develop?
a. 6 months
b. 1 year
c. 1.5 years
d. 2 years
ANS: c
most of thepostnatal formation of alveoli in the infant occurs over the first 1.5 years of life. at 2 years of age, the
number of alveoli varies substantially among individuals. after2 years of age, males have more alveoli than do
females. after alveolar multiplication ends, thealveoli continue toincrease in size until thoracic growth is
completed.
ref: p. 6
3. the respiratorytherapist is evaluating a newborn with mild respiratorydistress dueto tracheal stenosis.
during which period of lung development did this problem develop?
