Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The calyces merge to form the renal pelvis, which is a large collection reservoir within the kidney where urine is collected before it flows into the ureter. The renal columns are areas of cortical tissue that separate the renal pyramids, which are cone-shaped structures in the kidney. The hilum is the indented area of the kidney through which the renal artery, renal vein, and ureter pass.
