Q. No.Figure shows a human urinary system with structures labelled A to D. Select option which correctly identifies them and gives their characteristics and/or functions.
| 1. | B-pelvis - broad funnel-shaped space inner to the hilum, directly connected to loops of Henle. |
| 2. | C- Medulla- inner zone of kidney and contains complex nephrons. |
| 3. | D- Cortex- outer part of the kidney and does not contain any part of nephrons. |
| 4. | A- Adrenal gland- located at the anterior part of the kidney; secretes catecholamines which stimulate glycogen breakdown. |

Which statement does not correctly describe the path of urine flow?
1. ducts in each renal papilla drain into a minor calyx
2. the minor calyces merge to form a major calyx
3. the major calyces combine to form the renal pelvis
4. the renal pelvis conveys urine directly to the urethra
Which one of the following statements is incorrect?
1. The medullary zone of the kidney is divided into a few conical masses called medullary pyramids projecting into calyces.
2. Inside the kidney the cortical region extends in between the medullary pyramids as renal pelvis.
3. glomerulus along with Bowman's capsule is called the renal corpuscle.
4. Renal corpuscle, proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), and distal convoluted tubule (DCT) of the nephron are situated in the cortical region of the kidney.
