Expert Solution
Step 1

At the base of the rib cage, on either side of the spine, are two vital organs called the kidneys.

They carry out a variety of vital tasks for health, such as filtering waste materials and extra fluid from the body and eliminating it through urine.

Additionally, the kidneys are crucial for maintaining the body's mineral balance and they also create a hormone that promotes the creation of red blood cells.

The term "kidney disease" refers to a diseased kidney that is not functioning properly.
