Solution

The correct answer is e. All are correct.

Here's why:

W. Cor pulmonale: This is a condition that causes the right side of the heart to fail. It's often caused by long-term high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs, which can be a result of COPD.

X. Emphysema: This is a lung condition that causes shortness of breath and is often caused by damage to the air sacs in the lungs. It's one of the diseases that comprises COPD.

Y. Loss of cilia on bronchial epithelia: The cilia in the bronchial tubes are responsible for pushing mucus and other particles out of your lungs. With COPD, these cilia can be damaged or destroyed, leading to a buildup of mucus in the lungs.

Z. Lung cancer: COPD can increase your risk of developing lung cancer. The inflammation and tissue damage caused by COPD may contribute to the development of lung cancer.
