Quiz LibraryFetal Lung Development
Created from Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpXP9eKWj04video
Concepts covered:ventral respiratory diverticulum, ciliated columnar cells, pulmonary surfactant, terminal bronchioles, alveolar period
The video on fetal lung development outlines the five major phases: embryonic, pseudoglandular, canalicular, saccular, and alveolar. It details the specific developments in each phase, such as the formation of primitive lung buds, the appearance of ciliated columnar cells, and the increase in pulmonary surfactant, highlighting the rapid and complex growth of the fetal respiratory system.

1
Placental Gas Exchange and Fetal Hemoglobin Affinity
Concepts covered:placenta, external respiration, internal respiration, fetal hemoglobin, gas exchange
The chapter explains the roles of external and internal respiration, focusing on how gas exchange occurs in the placenta for a fetus. It details the differences in oxygen affinity between fetal and maternal hemoglobin and describes the transport of oxygen and nutrients from the mother to the baby through the umbilical cord.
Question 1
External respiration involves gas exchange at the alveolar-capillary membrane.
Question 2
How does a fetus receive oxygen?
Question 3
Why does fetal hemoglobin receive more oxygen?
Question 4
CASE STUDY: A newborn is showing signs of hypoxia despite normal maternal oxygen levels. You need to assess the fetal hemoglobin function.
All of the following are correct about fetal hemoglobin except:
Question 5
CASE STUDY: A researcher is studying the differences in gas exchange mechanisms between fetuses and adults. They need to identify key differences.
Select three correct differences in fetal and adult gas exchange:
chapter
2
Distinct Pathways in Fetal Circulation
Concepts covered:fetal circulation, umbilical vein, ductus venosus, foramen ovale, ductus arteriosus
The chapter explains the differences between adult and fetal circulation, highlighting six additional components in fetal circulation. It details the unique pathways and structures such as the umbilical vein, ductus venosus, foramen ovale, and ductus arteriosus that facilitate blood flow and gas exchange in a fetus.
Question 6
Only 10% of fetal blood reaches the lungs for development.
Question 7
Where does gas exchange occur in fetal circulation?
Question 8
Why does only 10% of blood reach fetal lungs?
Question 9
CASE STUDY: A medical student is asked to explain the pathway of oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetal heart.
All of the following are correct pathways except...
Question 10
CASE STUDY: A nurse is preparing a presentation on the differences between fetal and adult circulation.
Select three correct differences between fetal and adult circulation...
chapter
3
Fluid Dynamics and First Breath in Newborns
Concepts covered:alveoli fluid, birth canal, pulmonary capillaries, lymphatic system, first breath
At birth, babies have fluid in their alveoli to keep them open. This fluid is expelled through the birth canal, absorbed by pulmonary capillaries, and removed by the lymphatic system, with the first breath triggered by the cessation of placental gas exchange.
Question 11
At birth, babies have fluid in their alveoli.
Question 12
What absorbs the remaining fluid in a baby's lungs?
Question 13
Why do babies have fluid in their lungs at birth?
Question 14
CASE STUDY: A researcher is studying the development of alveoli in infants and needs to identify the timeline of alveolar development.
All of the following are phases of alveolar development except:
Question 15
CASE STUDY: A pediatrician is explaining to new parents how their baby's first breath is initiated after birth.
Select three correct statements about the first breath:
chapter
4
Chemoreceptor Response to CO2 and O2 Levels
Concepts covered:chemoreceptors, CO2, O2, pulmonary vascular resistance, breathing patterns
The chapter discusses how central and peripheral chemoreceptors respond to changes in CO2 and O2 levels, affecting breathing patterns and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). It explains the inverse relationship between CO2 and pH, and how these changes impact blood flow through the pulmonary artery, especially during physical activity and sleep.
Question 16
Increased CO2 levels raise pulmonary vascular resistance.
Question 17
How does increased CO2 affect pulmonary vascular resistance?
Question 18
What happens to pH when CO2 levels rise?
Question 19
CASE STUDY: A newborn is not breathing immediately after birth. The CO2 levels are rising, and the oxygen levels are falling.
All of the following are correct responses except...
Question 20
CASE STUDY: A person is sleeping and suddenly wakes up startled, gasping for air. Their CO2 levels are high.
Select three correct responses to high CO2 levels...
chapter
5
Transformation of Fetal Circulatory Structures and Newborn Breathing Mechanics
Concepts covered:placenta, umbilical ligaments, fossa ovalis, ductus arteriosus, negative pressure ventilation
The chapter discusses the transformation of fetal circulatory structures after birth, including the placenta, umbilical arteries, and veins, as well as the ductus venosus and arteriosus. It also explains the significant pressure required for a newborn to open their alveoli for the first time, highlighting the mechanics of negative pressure ventilation in infants.
Question 21
Newborns use positive pressure ventilation to open their alveoli.
Question 22
Where does blood go from the right ventricle in fetal circulation?
Question 23
What does the ductus arteriosus become postnatally?
Question 24
CASE STUDY: A newborn is having difficulty breathing and requires immediate medical intervention. The medical team needs to understand the changes in fetal circulation post-birth to address the issue effectively.
All of the following are correct applications of fetal circulation changes except:
Question 25
CASE STUDY: A medical student is learning about the fetal circulatory system and its transition after birth. They need to identify the correct anatomical changes that occur.
Select three correct anatomical changes post-birth:
