Kidney is well protected by ribs 10-12 , abdominal muscles, back muscles .kidney is about 11cm in length in adults. Kidney receives blood from the arteries and exist blood through the veins. Each kidney is attached to a ureter which harbour and carries urine to the bladder .Each kidney is approximately the same size as adult clenched fist(10cm).

Damm [24]

Given: The systolic arterial blood pressure observed for 20 dogs is normally distributed with a mean of 152 mm of mercury (Hg) and a standard deviation of 18 mm of Hg.  

To find: P(100 < 152)

Method: Calculation of Z-Score followed by the probability or area of the bell curve at X = 100.

Solution:

Mean u = 152, std s = 18

Z score = \frac{X-u}{s} = \frac{100-152}{18} = -2.89

The value of P(100<152) is calculated by looking at the value of Z in the Z score for the standard normal distribution given in the image.

P(Z=-2.89) = 0.0019

The P(Z = -2.89) corresponds to the area in the left tail of the bell curve.

Thus the probability of 100 mm Hg blood pressure is 0.0019.

Kobotan [32]
The answer is tissue fluid. Tissue fluid holds far smaller quantity of protein molecules because they are too large to escape easily over the tiny holes in the capillary endothelium. Tissue fluid doesn't contain red blood cells because they are too large, but does comprise some white blood cells.
