Detailed explanation-1: -The renal pelvis is a large cavity that collects the urine as it is produced. The periphery of the renal pelvis is interrupted by cuplike projections called calyces. A minor calyx surrounds the renal papillae of each pyramid and collects urine from that pyramid. Several minor calyces converge to form a major calyx.

Detailed explanation-2: -In turn, the major calyces join to form the funnel-shaped renal pelvis. * The renal pelvis collects urine from the calyces and transports it to the ureter.

Detailed explanation-3: -The renal pelvis or pelvis of the kidney is the funnel-like dilated part of the ureter in the kidney. It is formed by the covnvergence of the major calyces, acting as a funnel for urine flowing from the major calyces to the ureter.
