a.   renal columns
b.   renal medulla
c.   renal pyramids
d.   renal pelvis


2.   List the correct order of arteries that enter the kidney.
a.   renal artery, interlobar, arcuate, segmental, and interlobar arteries
b.   renal artery, segmental, interlobular, arcuate, interlobar arteries
c.   renal artery, segmental, interlobar, arcuate, interlobular arteries
