[173] [166] While the kidney develops, the metanephrogenic blastema and ureteric bud reciprocally induce each other. [166] Growing into the mesoderm, the ureteric bud branches and transforms into a tree structure that will eventually become the ureter, renal pelvis, major and minor calyces, renal papillae, and collecting ducts.

Humans did not evolve from either of the living species of chimpanzees (common chimpanzees and bonobos) or any other living species of apes. [174] Humans and chimpanzees did, however, evolve from a common ancestor. [175] [176] This most recent common ancestor of living humans and chimpanzees would have lived between 5 and 8 million years ago. [177]
The protective external layer of tissue on the stem s and root s of woody trees and shrubs; includes all of the living and non-living tissue external to the cambium. basal Situated or attached at or close to the base (of a plant or a phylogenetic tree diagram). basifixed Something attached by its base, e.g. an anther attached to the filament.
Transverse section, showing the relations of the capsule of the kidney. (Peritoneum is labeled at center right.) Sagittal section through posterior abdominal wall, showing the relations of the capsule of the kidney (pararenal fat labeled as paranephric body center left) Perirenal space. It is also called the perinephric space.
The three anatomical planes of the body: the sagittal, transverse (or horizontal), frontal planes. Anatomy is often described in planes, referring to two-dimensional sections of the body. A section is a two-dimensional surface of a three-dimensional structure that has been cut. A plane is an imaginary two-dimensional surface that passes through ...
Kidney transplant or renal transplant is the organ transplant of a kidney into a patient with end-stage kidney disease (ESRD). Kidney transplant is typically classified as deceased-donor (formerly known as cadaveric) or living-donor transplantation depending on the source of the donor organ.
The right kidney sits just below the diaphragm and posterior to the liver. The left kidney sits below the diaphragm and posterior to the spleen. On top of each kidney is an adrenal gland. The upper parts of the kidneys are partially protected by the 11th and 12th ribs.
It indicates roughly the transverse colon, the lower ends of the kidneys, and the upper limit of the transverse (3rd) part of the duodenum. The third line is called the intertubercular line , and runs across between the two rough tubercles , which can be felt on the outer lip of the crest of the ilium about two and a half inches (64 mm) from ...
