The kidney's distinctive shape is primarily a result of its functional requirements and anatomical positioning within the body. The concave side, known as the hilum, allows for the entry and exit of blood vessels, nerves, and the ureter, facilitating efficient waste filtration and urine transport. Its shape also maximizes surface area for filtration while accommodating the limited space in the abdominal cavity. Additionally, the kidney's morphology helps to optimize blood flow and filtration efficiency.
