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



of a capillary network around airway passages?
es es es es es es



a. Pseudoglandular
b. Saccular
c. Alveolar
d. Canalicular
ANS: D es



The canalicular phase follows the pseudoglandular phase, lasting from approximately 17 wee
es es es es es es es es es es es



ks to 26 weeks of gestation. This phase is so named because of the appearance of vascularchan
es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es



nels, or capillaries, which begin to grow by forming a capillary network around the air passag

es. During the pseudoglandular stage, which begins at day 52 and extends to week 16 of gesta
es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es



tion, the airway system subdivides extensively and the conducting airway system develops, e

nding with the terminal bronchioles. The saccular stage of development, which takes place fr
es es es es es es es es es es es es es



om weeks 29 to 36 of gestation, is characterized by the development of sacs thatlater become
es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es



alveoli. During the saccular phase, a tremendous increase in the potential
es es es es es es es es es es



gas-
exchanging surface area occurs. The distinction between the saccular stage and the alveol
es es es es es es es es es es es es



ar stage is arbitrary. The alveolar stage stretches from 39 weeks of gestation to term.This
es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es



stage is represented by the establishment of alveoli.

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

lbe present in the lungs for life develop?
es es es es es es es es



a. 6 months es



b. 1 year es



c. 1.5 years es



d. 2 years es




ANS: C es



Most of the postnatal formation of alveoli in the infant occurs over the first 1.5 years of life.
es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es



At 2 years of age, the number of alveoli varies substantially among individuals. After 2 yearso
es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es



f age, males have more alveoli than do females. After alveolar multiplication ends, the alveoli
es es es es es es es es es es es es es es es



continue to increase in size until thoracic growth is completed.

5. What is the purpose of the substance secreted by the type II pneumocyte?

b. To reduce surface tension es es es

ANS: B es



The primary role of mammalian surfactant is to lower the surface tension within the alveolus,

specifically at the air– es es es



liquid interface. This allows the delicate structure of the alveolus to expand when filled with a

Fetal lungs are secretory organs that make breathing-

about 250 to 300 ml of liquid per day.
