The process whereby a bud in the lung increases radially. The multiplication or reproduction of epithelial cells that contribute to the radial growth of a lung bud. The process whereby a highly ordered sequence of patterning events generates the branched structures of the lung, consisting of reiterated combinations of bud outgrowth, elongation, and dichotomous subdivision of terminal units. The developmental growth that results in the elongation of a line that defines polarity or symmetry in an anatomical structure. The process by which the anatomical structures of the lung are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process by which the anatomical structures of branches in a tube are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. A tube is a long hollow cylinder. The process by which the anatomical structures of a tube are generated and organized from an epithelium. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Epithelial tubes transport gases, liquids and cells from one site to another and form the basic structure of many organs and tissues, with tube shape and organization varying from the single-celled excretory organ in Caenorhabditis elegans to the branching trees of the mammalian kidney and insect tracheal system. The increase in size or mass of an anatomical structure that contributes to the structure attaining its shape.
