7
Q

what is canalicular stage

A
  • capillary bed expands and endothelium thins

- surfactant begin production

16
Q

what does retinoic acid do

A
  • increase alveolarization

- may decrease broncho pulmonary dysplasia

17
Q

how does estrogen and testosterone change

A

estrogen: adequate levels of surfactant production
testosterone: slows lung development
