Answer to Question 1

D
Cavities are commonly seen in the advanced stages of a fungal lung infection. Spherical nodules may be seen early in the disease process. The other options are not seen.

Answer to Question 2

Clinical manifestations associated with the more negative intrapleural pressures needed during inspiration include, but are not limited to, seesaw breathing movement and cyanosis of the dependent thoracic areas. Pleural friction rub and inspiratory stridor are not associated with an infant with RSV.
