Yes. The renal medulla is lateral to the renal pelvis. You have the renal pelvis placed lateral to the medulla. The kidneys face to each other lateral to the vertebral column.. The right kidney is situated lower than the left kidney. This happens due to big size of the liver.
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 are the Sections of the kidney?
cortex, medulla, and pelvis.The substance, or parenchyma, of the kidney is divided into two major structures: superficial is the renal cortex and deep is the renal medulla.cortex and medullaCortex, medulla, and pelvis.
Is the medulla in the outer layer of the kidney?
No, the medulla is located in the inner portion of the kidney. It lies between the renal cortex and the renal sinus, and is where urine is formed and drained into the renal pelvis.
Does Medulla mean inner portion?
Yes it is, and next to it is the renal pelvis which joins the ureter
Which sequence for kidney inner structure is correct?
Medulla, renal pyramids, renal papilla , minor calyx, major calyx , renal pelvis , ureter
Do the renal tubules empty urine into the renal medulla?
No, the renal tubules do not empty urine directly into the renal medulla. The renal tubules are responsible for reabsorbing water and other important substances from the filtrate, which eventually forms urine that is transported to the renal pelvis before draining into the ureter.
How do mammal kidneys differ from the kidneys of other vertebrates?
Only mammalian kidneys have a renal pelvis (dilated beginning of the ureter) and renal pyramids (8 to 18 cone-shaped tissues in the renal medulla). The renal medulla (the innermost part of the kidney), and the renal cortex (surrounds the renal medulla) are more distinguishable in mammals than in other vertebrates.
Is the inner layer of the kidney called the pelvis?
The inner part of the kidney is called the renal medulla. Next to the medulla is the pelvis which collects the urine and becomes the ureter which goes down and opens in the bladder
What are the two main regions in the internal structure of a kidney?
The two main regions in the internal structure of a kidney are the renal cortex and the renal medulla. The cortex is the outer region where most of the filtration of blood takes place, while the medulla is the inner region where urine is collected and transported to the renal pelvis.
What is the name of the kidney outer layer?
You mean the capsuls covering it. But generally kidney is coverd by posterior wall of peritonium
What is the inner portion of the adrenal gland is the?
The adrenal medulla is the inner portion of the adrenal gland.
What is normally formed in the renal medulla?
In the renal medulla, urine is formed through a process of filtration, reabsorption, and secretion. It is here that the final concentration and composition of urine are regulated by the kidneys before it is passed to the renal pelvis for elimination.
