The Kidneys are Innervated by Which of the Following

Question

The kidneys are innervated by which of the following?
A) ureteric nerves
B) renal nerves
C) pelvic nerves
D) celiac plexus
E) sacral nerves

Accepted Answer

The kidneys are innervated by renal nerves, which are part of the sympathetic nervous system. These nerves travel alongside the renal arteries to reach the kidneys. The celiac plexus and sacral nerves are also involved in renal function but do not directly innervate the kidneys. Ureteric nerves and pelvic nerves are not associated with renal innervation.
