1. Which of the following phases of human lung development is characterized by the lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




formation of a capillary network around airway passages?
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




a. Pseudoglandular

b. Saccular

c. Alveolar

d. Canalicular



ANS: D lk




The canalicular phase follows the pseudoglandular phase, lasting from approximately 17 weeks to
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




26 weeks of gestation. This phase is so named because of the appearance of vascular channels, or
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




capillaries, which begin to grow by forming a capillary network around the air passages.
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




During the pseudoglandular stage, which begins at day 52 and extends to week 16 of gestation, the
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




airway system subdivides extensively and the conducting airway system develops, ending with the
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




terminal bronchioles. The saccular stage of development, which takes place from weeks 29 to 36 of
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




gestation, is characterized by the development of sacs that later become alveoli.
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




During the saccular phase, a tremendous increase in the potential gas- exchanging surface area
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




occurs. The distinction between the saccular stage and the alveolar stage is arbitrary. The alveolar
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




stage stretches from 39 weeks of gestation to term. This stage is represented by the establishment
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




of alveoli.

2. Regarding postnatal lung growth, by approximately what age do most of the alveoli that lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




will be present in the lungs for life develop?
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




a. 6 months
lk

,b. 1 year lk




c. 1.5 years lk




d. 2 years lk




ANS: C lk




Most of the postnatal formation of alveoli in the infant occurs over the first 1.5 years of life. At 2
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




years of age, the number of alveoli varies substantially among individuals. After 2 years of age,
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




males have more alveoli than do females. After alveolar multiplication ends, the alveoli continue to
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




increase in size until thoracic growth is completed.

3. The respiratory therapist is evaluating a newborn with mild respiratory distress due to
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




tracheal stenosis. During which period of lung development did this problem develop?
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




a. Embryonal

b. Saccular

c. Canalicular

d. Alveolar



ANS: A lk




The initial structures of the pulmonary tree develop during the embryonal stage. Errors in
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




development during this time may result in laryngeal, tracheal, or esophageal atresia or stenosis.
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




Pulmonary hypoplasia, an incomplete development of the lungs characterized by an abnormally low
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




number and/or size of bronchopulmonary segments and/or alveoli, can develop during the
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




pseudoglandular phase. If the fetus is born during the canalicular phase (i.e., prematurely), severe
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




respiratory distress can be expected because the inadequately developed airways, along with
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




insufficient and immature surfactant production by alveolar type II cells, gives rise to the
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




constellation of problems known as infant respiratory distress syndrome.

4. Which of the following mechanisms is (are) responsible for the possible association
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




between oligohydramnios and lung hypoplasia?
lk lk lk lk lk




I. Abnormal carbohydrate metabolism lk lk




II. Mechanical restriction of the chest wall lk lk lk lk lk




III. Interference with fetal breathing lk lk lk




IV. Failure to produce fetal lung liquid lk lk lk lk lk




a. I and III only

b. II and III only
lk lk lk




c. I, II, and IV only
lk lk lk lk




d. II, III, and IV only lk lk lk lk




ANS: D lk




Oligohydramnios, a reduced quantity of amniotic fluid present for an extended period of time, with lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




or without renal anomalies, is associated with lung hypoplasia. The mechanisms by which amniotic
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




fluid volume influences lung growth remain unclear. Possible explanations for reduced quantity of
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




amniotic fluid include mechanical restriction of the chest wall, interference with fetal breathing, or
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




failure to produce fetal lung liquid. These clinical and experimental observations possibly point to a
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




common denominator, lung stretch, as being a major growth stimulant.
