Kidney Stones: Which Organ System Do They Impact?
The correct answer is the urinary system.
The kidneys are part of the urinary system. Kidney stones are hard deposits that form in the kidneys. They can cause pain in the back, side, or abdomen. Kidney stones can also cause nausea, vomiting, and fever. If a kidney stone blocks the flow of urine, it can lead to kidney damage.
