Answer to Question 1

A
Alveolar hypoplasia is the major anatomic pathology associated with new BPD.

Answer to Question 2

C
Patients with emphysema have weakened distal airways with permanent enlargement and destruction of the airspaces distal to the terminal bronchioles. This results in hyperinflation, destruction of the alveolar-capillary membrane, and decreased surface area available for gas exchange.
