This was my clay project showing a normal, healthy kidney next to a kidney with polycystic kidney disease. You can size the size comparison and the cysts covering the diseased kidney.

Hi Linnea,
Great job on this STEAM project! Your artwork clearly shows the impacts polycystic kidney disease can have on a healthy kidney. I appreciate the different shapes, sizes, and colors of the cysts that differentiate between types. Some are larger than others which could indicate increased severity. Your project directly connects with the Renal System chapter, specifically the objective that highlights the function of kidneys. You emphasized what a healthy kidney should appear as based on the content we have learned and compared it to a disease you researched. The infected kidney clearly shows how it can get inflamed and overgrown by cysts if infected by this disease. Thank you for bringing my attention to this disease and expressing your research through artwork! Great job!
