Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The renal medulla consists of a series of renal pyramids, which appear striated because they contain straight tubular structures and blood vessels. The wide bases of the pyramids are adjacent to the cortex and the pointed ends, called renal papillae, are directed toward the center of the kidney.
