What region is the left kidney in?
Three horizontal lines and two vertical lines create nine regions of the abdomen. “Hypo” refers to “below”, “epi” refers to “above”, “chond-” refers to the cartilage of the rib and “gast-” is in reference to the stomach.The left hypochondrium is the region that the left kidney is located in. This area is one of two regions (left or right) of the abdomen, situated on each side of the epigastrium (above the stomach) and above the lumbar regions.Both are located against the back muscles in the upper abdominal area. They sit opposite each other on both the left and right side of the body; the right kidney, however, sits a little lower than the left to accommodate the size of the liver.Odd enough, this is where the seat of melancholy is supposed to be found.

Difference between frontal and sagittal section of kidney?
"Frontal" refers to the front portion of the kidney or any structure, sagittal refers to an imaginary plane through the middle of the body, dividing into equal left and right portions.

What side is your kidneys on?
your left and your right side... you have two kidneys total, one on each sideI'm assuming you meant to say side*. If that is the case, then to answer your question, your kidneys are found on both sides of your body. One on the left and one on the right. They are found in the lower abdominal cavity, partially covered by the 11th and 12th ribs of the rib cage.Fun Fact! -> The right kidney is actually located a couple inches lower than the left because it is crowded by the much larger liver.
Why does one kidney sit higher up than the other?
One kidney may sit higher than the other due to natural variations in anatomy. It is common for one kidney to be positioned slightly higher in the body than the other. This difference in position does not typically affect the function of the kidneys.
Is one kidney larger than the other?
Yes, typically one kidney is larger than the other. The right kidney is usually slightly smaller and positioned lower than the left kidney due to the presence of the liver above it. However, the size difference is generally minor and varies among individuals. Both kidneys function similarly despite any size discrepancies.
