  B) As the pulmonary vascular resistance increases, pulmonary blood flow increases, reaching 100 by the first 24 hours of life.
  C) Decreased pulmonary blood volume contributes to the conversion from fetal to newborn circulation.
  D) Once the pulmonary circulation has been functionally established, blood is distributed throughout the lungs.
