What does Renal artery, Renal medulla, Renal cortex, Renal pelvis acts, and Renal vein do? |
Renal artery- brings in blood for filtration. Renal medulla- is the part of the kidney where blood branches into smaller arteries and is sent to a filtration area. Renal cortex- is the site of filtration, and it contains functional units of the kidney called nephrons. Renal pelvis- acts like a funnel to collect urine, and directs it to the bladder via the ureter. Renal vein- is how filtered blood leaves the kidney. |
