Different between the basic structural and functional units of the kidney and the lungs based on the following points: - a)name , b) structure , c) function

The functional unit of the kidney is nephron. Kidney comprises two kinds of nephrons, each situated in distinct sections of the renal cortex, that is, juxtamedullary nephrons and cortical nephrons. A nephron constitutes of a renal tubule, renal corpuscle, and the associated network of capillaries. The nephron is accountable for eradicating waste from the body.  

The functional unit of lungs is alveoli. They resemble a cluster of grapes, they are thin and possess moist walls. They are a single layer of cells enveloped by a layer of capillaries. The main function of the lungs is respiration. The alveoli help one to breathe, by conducting the process of gas exchange.
