Q

Includes primitive lung development and is generally regarded to encompass the first 2 months of gestation, the diaphragm also develops

A

Embryonic phase

25
Q

The lung begins to emerge as a bud from the pharynx 26 days after conception, This lung bud elongates and forms two bronchial buds and the trachea, which
then separate from the esophagus through the development of the tracheoesophageal septum

A

Embryonic Phase

26
Q

Various growth factors and fibroblasts mediate morphogenesis of the tubular epithelium, which results in airway branching : __ on the right and __ on
the left

A

10 on right , 9 on left

27
Q

Left and right pulmonary veins start to develop at about week __ as a single evagination in the sinoatrial portion of the heart

A

Week 5

28
Q

Complete development of the diaphragm occurs by approximately week __ of gestation

A

Week 7

29
Q

This phase named after the distinct glandular appearance of the developing
lung, extends to week 16 of gestation, during which time the conducting airways continue to develop.

A

Pseudoglandular Phase

30
Q

During the pseudoglandular phase, cilia appear on the surface of the epithelium of the trachea and the mainstem bronchi at __ weeks of gestation and are present on the epithelial cells of the peripheral airways by __ weeks of gestation.

A

10 weeks, 13 weeks

31
Q

Goblet cells appear in the bronchial epithelium at __ to __ weeks of gestation, and submucosal glands arise as solid buds from the basal layers of the surface epithelium at __ to __ weeks of gestation.

A

13 to 14 weeks, 15 to 16 weeks

32
Q

The development of cartilage has been documented at __ weeks of gestation and may be present earlier.

A

24 weeks

33
Q

By __ weeks’ gestation, T lymphocytes
can be found in the respiratory system

A

14 weeks

34
Q

This phase is so named because of the appearance of vascular channels, or capillaries, that begin to grow by forming a capillary network around the air passages. Pulmonary acinar units are also formed

A

Canalicular Phase

35
Q

The capillaries develop at __ weeks of gestation and by __ weeks have increased in number.

A

20 weeks, 22 weeks

36
Q

Appearance of surfactant, what phase?

A

Canalicular phase

37
Q

approximately ______ terminal bronchioles exist in an adult lung

A

25,000

38
Q

By __ to __ weeks of gestation of canalicular phase, two types of cells can be identified within the developing
human lung. These distinct cell types are referred to as type I pneumocyte and type II pneumocyte epithelial cells.

A

20 to 22 weeks

39
Q

The conducting airways have now developed smooth muscle By the end of the ________ phase, the developing air–blood barrier is thin enough to support gas exchange.

A

canalicular phase

40
Q

The epithelial cells at this phase are capable of producing fetal lung liquid.

A

Canalicular

41
Q

The _______ phase was formerly believed to be the last stage of lung development before
birth

A

Saccular phase

42
Q

However, because alveoli are now known to form before birth, the termination of the saccular period is arbitrarily set at __ to __ weeks of gestation.

A

35 to 36 weeks

43
Q

At the beginning of this phase, at about __ weeks of gestation, the terminal structures are referred to as saccules and are relatively smooth-walled, cylindrical structures.
