Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the labeled parts of the kidney

A: Renal Cortex
B: Renal Medulla
C: Renal Pyramid
D: Renal Column
E: Renal Papilla
F: Minor Calyx
G: Major Calyx
H: Renal Capsule
I: Renal Pelvis
J: Ureter
K: Renal Artery
L: Renal Vein
M: Renal Hilum
N: Renal Sinus
O: Ureter

Step 2: Describe the function of the Renal Cortex

The renal cortex is the outer part of the kidney. It contains the glomeruli and convoluted tubules, which are essential for filtering blood and forming urine.

Step 3: Describe the function of the Renal Medulla

The renal medulla is the innermost part of the kidney. It contains the renal pyramids, which are responsible for concentrating urine and directing it into the renal pelvis.
