| canalicular p. |
the second period or phase of lung development in utero, lasting in different parts of the lungs from the sixteenth or seventeenth week to the twenty-fourth week or later. Basic structures of the gas-exchanging parts of the lungs form and become vascular, and primitive alveoli called the terminal saccules begin to form, enabling respiration to begin. Fetuses delivered after respiration begins may be viable. This is followed by the terminal saccular phase.
