All right, we're going to describe the structure of the kidney with my terrible drawing here.
00:05
So, on the, let's just talk about the three layers of the outside of the kidney, which is represented by this section right here, these two yellow lines on the outside.
00:18
This is the outer section of the kidney.
00:22
It has three layers.
00:25
And these three layers are the renal fascia, which is on the outside.
00:32
And then under that is the parrenel fat capsule, which is a great name.
00:42
And then under that, the innermost outer layer is the renal capsule.
00:48
And so those are the three layers on the outside.
00:52
When we get to the inner part of the kidney, it's divided into three regions.
00:56
We have the outer cortex.
01:00
And as you're reading, you're going to learn about nephrons.
01:02
Nephrons are located in the outer cortex.
01:05
And the outer cortex up here is this section right here between this innermost yellow line and these blue things right here, which i've drawn to represent a lot of nephrons...
