Kidney
The renal cortex, renal medulla, and renal pelvis are the three main internal regions found in a kidney.
Nephrons, masses of tiny tubules, are largely located in the medulla and receive fluid from the blood vessels in the renal cortex.
The renal cortex produces erythropotein.
The kidneys are made up by three external layers, which include the renal fascia (the outermost layer), the perirenal fat capsule, and lastly, the innermost layer, the renal capsule, which then surround the space of the renal cortex.
There are three major regions of the kidney:
Renal cortex
Renal medulla
Renal pelvis
