How the model is used in teaching
Removing the front half of the kidney exposes its internal zones. The cortex forms the outer band, where blood is filtered; the medulla lies inside it, arranged in pyramids where water and salts are reabsorbed; and the calices collect the urine and funnel it towards the ureter. Seeing these zones on a model makes it easier to interpret sections viewed later under the microscope.
The adrenal gland sitting on top of the kidney is a useful teaching point in its own right: although it touches the kidney, it is an endocrine gland that releases hormones such as adrenaline. The renal and adrenal vessels and the upper ureter show how blood arrives for filtering and how urine leaves.
