Suaeda taxifolia Suaeda taxifolia is a species of flowering plant in the amaranth family known by the common name woolly seablite. It is
Renal calyx volume that stretches the walls of the calyces. This causes them to fire impulses which stimulate rhythmical contraction and relaxation, called peristalsis. Parasympathetic innervation enhances the peristalsis while sympathetic innervation inhibits it. A "staghorn calculus" is a kidney stone that may extend into the renal calyces. A renal diverticulum is diverticulum of renal calyces. Renal calyx The renal calyces are chambers of the kidney through which urine passes. The minor calyces surround the apex of the renal pyramids. Urine formed in the kidney passes through a renal papilla at the apex into the minor calyx; two or three minor calyces
