Lungs
An introduction to the lungs...
On this page, we will be exploring the development of the lungs through the stages of embryonic growth.
Developmental origin overview
The Lung Development Stages
1. Embryonic (weeks 4-5) 2. Pseudoglandular (weeks 5-17) 3. Canalicular (weeks 16-25) 4. Saccular (weeks 24-40) 5. Alveolar (week 36-8 years)
The Respiratory Zone
- The terminal bronchioles - Alveolar ducts - Alveoli
Developmental timeline
Developmental signalling processes
