It is possible to donate a kidney and survive because humans have two kidneys, but only one is necessary for normal bodily function. The remaining kidney can adapt to handle the body's needs by increasing its filtration capacity. Additionally, the body has a remarkable ability to compensate for the loss of one kidney, allowing the donor to lead a healthy and active life post-donation. Medical evaluations ensure that donors are healthy enough to safely undergo the procedure.
Yes. Many people donate a kidney to friends or family members that have kidney failure. The donor then has one kidney and probably the recipient has one functioning kidney.
At the age of 10 you are a child and it is not legal to donate a kidney to someone.
If it's one healthy kidney, sure. Plenty of people donate one kidney and manage just fine afterwards. The concern would be if whatever it was that caused one kidney not to develop somehow messed up the existing kidney too.
