A surface-active agent 'surfactant' usually cleans something. ie -soap is a surfactant.
Surfactant is pleural fluid.
What is the interfacial properties of surfactant solution?
secrete surfactant
The main function or job of a surfactant is to reduce surface tension. This process is used on liquids while it dissolves.
Normally surfactant replacement therapy keeps the infant alive until the lungs start producing their own surfactant.
I put ketchup on everything! Ketchup on everything! Ketchup, ketchup, ketchup, ketchup, ketchup on everything! In case it's not clear, I like ketchup.

I have never heard the surfactant called anything specific. Full term babies usually have surfactant (a mixture of lipids (fats) and proteins). Premature babies many times do not have enough surfactant to keep the alveoli of their lungs open, so artificial surfactant is put into the trachea, sometimes more than once.
Presumably you mean surfactant and water? A classic surfactant molecule has a polar, hydrophilic end and a non-polar hydrocarbon liophilic end. With enough of a suitable surfactant, oil droplets will form with the liophilic part of surfactant molecules dissolved in the droplets and water molecules attached to the hydrophilic part of the surfactant. The oil disperses in the water.
Fetuses begin to produce surfactant between weeks 24 and 28.
"ketchup" is masculine in French, "le ketchup". Examples: "Tu as du ketchup sur la joue." = "You have ketchup on the cheek." "Passe-moi le ketchup." = "Pass me the ketchup." "la bouteille de ketchup" = "the ketchup bottle"
