Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A
Persistent pulmonary hypertension can result from the aspiration of meconium.
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia is due to the use of positive pressure oxygenation that stretches the immature lung membranes.
Transitory tachypnea of the newborn is due to delayed absorption of fetal lung fluid.
This is a congenital defect that can be caused by atrial septal defects, ventricular septal de-fects, patent ductus arteriosus, or atrioventricular canal defects.
