I WONDER - Can You Live With One Kidney?

Humans have two kidneys, but only one is necessary for survival. Kidneys are highly efficient, filtering more blood than needed. If one kidney is removed due to health issues, the remaining kidney compensates by working harder, allowing individuals to live healthily with just one. The kidneys are exceptional at their function.
