The difference is in the origins of the tissue. There are 3 parts of an embryonic kidney: 1.pronephros (anterior portion) 2.mesonephros (middle portion) 3.metanephros (posterior portion) Opisthonephric kidneys are made up of the mesonephros and metanephros. An Opisthonephric kidney is divided into two parts: 1) proximate 2)distal Example --> Mudpuppies have opisthonephric kidneys Metanephric kidneys are made up of only the metanephros. A Metanephric kidney is divided into three parts: 1)proximate 2)intermediate (ex. the Loop of Henle forms from this part) 3)distal Example --> Pigeons have metanephric kidneys
