renal capsule
Mucosa is a mucous membrane that lines the inside of the tract from mouth to anus. Depending upon the section of the digestive tract, it protects the GI tract wall, secretes substances, and absorbs the end products of digestion. It also surrounds the large and small intestines, and other vital organs in the human body
Microvilli are small, finger-like projections found on the surface of cells in the small intestine, kidney, and other tissues. They increase the surface area of the cell membrane, allowing for more efficient absorption of nutrients and molecules. This adaptation helps in maximizing the rate of absorption of substances in the digestive tract and enhancing cellular function.
The process of excreting salt from the surface of the body is called salt excretion.
The outer layer of the kidney is called the renal capsule, a tough, fibrous membrane that protects the kidney and helps maintain its shape. Beneath this capsule lies the renal cortex, which contains nephrons, the functional units of the kidney responsible for filtering blood and producing urine. The renal capsule also contains blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerves that supply the kidney.
An indentation in the medial surface of the kidney is known as the renal hilum. This area serves as the entry and exit point for structures such as the renal arteries, veins, and ureters. It is located on the concave side of the kidney and plays a critical role in the organ's function by allowing the passage of blood vessels and urine drainage. The hilum is essential for maintaining the kidney's connection to the circulatory and urinary systems.
The smooth membrane tightly adherent to the kidney's surface is called the renal capsule. It is a fibrous covering that protects the kidney and helps maintain its shape and position within the body.
Renal Capsule.
The renal capsule is an inner fibrous membrane that surrounds the kidney and prevents infections from entering the kidney.
kidney
The fibrous membrane immediately surrounding the kidney is called the renal capsule. It is a smooth, transparent sheath that helps to maintain the shape and protect the kidney.
The renal capsule, a fibrous covering, fits over the concave surface of each kidney.

The cells lining the proximal tubules of the nephrons have a highly folded cell membrane on the lumen side of the tubule made of microvilli. This is referred to as a brush border and is important in increasing the surface area for reabsorption of components of the filtrate as it passes down the nephron.

kidney
It simply means the kidney surface or cortex appeared abnormal - you will need a kidney biopsy to see what this actually means.
