  • The kidney is a paired organ of the excretory system in vertebrates, which maintains the balance of water and electrolytes in the body (osmoregulation), filters the blood, removes metabolic waste products, and in many vertebrates also produces hormones (in particular, renin) and maintains blood pressure. (wikipedia.org)
  • In healthy vertebrates, the kidneys maintain homeostasis of extracellular fluid in the body. (wikipedia.org)
  • Evolutionary pressure and the need to regulate body fluid homeostasis have led to pre-adaptation of the vertebrate kidneys to different environment conditions and to development of three kidney forms: the pronephros, mesonephros and metanephros. (wikipedia.org)
