What else can I help you with?
What are the three main regions of the kidney in their correct sequence from outermost to innermost?
renal cortex > renal medulla > renal pelvis1.renal medulla>renal pelvis>renal cortex2.renal medulla>renal cortex>renal pelvis3.renal cortex>renal medulla>renal pelvis4.renal cortex>renal pelvis>renal medulla
What is renal medulla's function?
lipid-laden interstitial cells in the medulla are believed to be important in production of prostaglandin.
What are the the triangular-shaped areas of the renal medulla are the?
They are located in the renal medulla and are made of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule.
What separate the renal cortex from the medulla?
The renal medulla is composed mostly of collecting ducts and the nephron loops. You will not see any glomeruli in the medulla, as they are confined to the cortex. This makes the renal cortex and renal medulla easily distinguishable.
Are prostaglandins made in the renal medulla?
Yes, prostaglandins are made in the renal medulla.
What part of the renal tubules can be found in the medulla of the kidney?
The renal medulla is the innermost part of the kidney. The renal medulla is split up into a number of sections, known as the renal pyramids
What is the shell around the renal medulla?
The renal medulla is surrounded by the renal cortex, which is the outer layer of the kidney. It contains the renal columns, which are extensions of cortical tissue that project into the medulla.
What is the function of Renal pyramids?
One million functional units
The outer section of the kidney is called the renal medulla?
false........ The renal medulla is not the outer section of the kidney
Is the renal medulla located between the renal pyramids and the renal capsule?
the medulla is organized into a GROUP of pyramids. It makes up the pyramids.
The triangular shaped areas of the renal medulla are the what?
Renal Pyramids - The renal medulla consists of 6 to 18 distinct conical or triangular structures called renal pyramids.
Where are the renal columns located?
The renal columns are located in the renal medulla, which is the inner part of the kidney. They are extensions of the renal cortex that project into the renal medulla, helping to support and divide the structures within the kidney.
