The layer of the kidney superficial to the renal pyramids but deep to the renal capsule is:
A
Renal pyramid
B
Renal pelvis
C
Renal medulla
D
Renal lobe
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The renal capsule is a layer of fibrous tissue that surrounds the body of the kidney inside the layer of fat. The cortex is the tissue just under the renal capsule. The medulla is the inner part of the kidney.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cortex is the outside layer or covering of many body organs, so the renal cortex is the outer layer of the kidney. The renal cortex is also known as the kidney cortex. The cortex surrounds the inside of the organ, which is called the medulla.

Detailed explanation-3: -The renal cortex produces erythropotein. The kidneys are made up by three external layers, which include the renal fascia (the outermost layer), the perirenal fat capsule, and lastly, the innermost layer, the renal capsule, which then surround the space of the renal cortex.
