The kidneys are solid; bean-shaped, reddish brown-paired structure, which lies behind the abdominal cavity one on either side of the vertebral column. This kidney acts like the filter organ, which removes the waste products from the blood, which forms urine. The kidney also helps in maintaining electrolyte balance.

About 180 litres of blood, which run through these nephrons (functional unit of the kidney), are reduced to urine by the process of filtration, reabsorption, and secretion by the nephrons. The urine enters the pelvis of the kidney where it collects and continues down the ureters to the bladder. In the urinary bladder, urine is temporarily stored and is finally eliminated from the body through the urinary passage called urethra. Human beings on an average pass about 1 to 1.5 litres of urine per day.
