The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Structure**: The question asks for the funnel-shaped space in the kidney. 2. **Recall the Anatomy of the Kidney**: The kidney has several parts, including the renal cortex, renal medulla, renal pyramids, minor calyx, major calyx, and renal pelvis. 3. **Locate the Funnel-Shaped Space**: Among these structures, the renal pelvis is recognized as the funnel-shaped space.
