The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the "Columns of Bertini," which is also known as "Renal Columns" or "Columns of Bertin." 2. **Identifying the Structure**: The Columns of Bertini are extensions of the renal cortex that extend between the renal pyramids in the kidney. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A**: Glomerulus along with Bowman's capsule - This refers to the nephron structure, not the columns. - **Option B**: Pine Capillary Network around renal tubules - This describes the capillary network, not the columns. - **Option C**: Cortex Extend in between medullary pyramids - This accurately describes the Columns of Bertini. - **Option D**: Medulla Extend as renal column - This is incorrect as the columns are extensions of the cortex, not the medulla. 4. **Selecting the Correct Answer**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **Option C**: Cortex Extend in between medullary pyramids. 5. **Conclusion**: The Columns of Bertini are indeed the extensions of the renal cortex that are located between the medullary pyramids in the kidney.
