Each kidney has a renal lobe consisting of a renal pyramid with the renal cortex above it.

There are millions of the tiny tubes in each of the kidney to carry blood and other nutrients both inside and outside of the kidney. The artery basically divides into many tiny blood vessels throughout the kidney.
Each kidney contains approximately 500,000 glomeruli

There are about 1 million nephrons in a kidney. Most humans have 2 kidneys.
Yes, many in each kidney. Nephrons are the functional unit of the kidney where filtration of the blood contents occurs and urine is produced - and its degree of concentration is determined. Various hormones and sympathetic stimulants act on the kidney to regulate these processes.
2 million people are diagnosed with kidney disease each year, and a few thousand die of it or complications.
It is the Renal artery that supplies blood to the kidneys to be filtered. The number of Renal Arteries may vary from one or more to each kidney.
