The first thing we think of is the potential for a deadly envenomation, or sting. All scorpions do sting, but few are deadly, and the species on the Gulf coast is not a threat to life. Scorpions are arachnids, being closely related to spiders.
The renal capsule is a tough fibrous layer surrounding the kidney and covered in a thick layer of perinephric adipose tissue. It provides some protection from trauma and damage.The renal capsule relates to the other layers in the following order (moving from innermost to outermost):1  renal medulla.2  renal cortex. 3  renal capsule.t provides some protection from trauma and damage. The renal capsule relates to the other layers in the following order (moving from innermost to outermost): 1  renal medulla. 2  renal cortex. 3  renal capsule.
Urinary: Renal Corpuscle. This schematic diagram shows the major features of the renal corpuscle. The renal corpuscle is formed when a mass of glomerular capillaries gows into the blind ending of a nephron. The nephron encapsulates this mass of capillaries, and it invaginates to form Bowman's capsule.(see diagram).he outer layer of epithelium is called the parietal layer. Blood is filtered out from the capillaries through the visceral layer of epithelium into the capsular (Bowman's) space, and can move out from here into the proximal convoluted tubule. This section shows a renal corpuscle.
