pronephros morphogenesis

^ http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0072114


The process in which the anatomical structures of the pronephros are generated and organized. In mammals, the pronephros is the first of the three embryonic kidneys to be established and exists only transiently. In lower vertebrates such as fish and amphibia, the pronephros is the fully functional embryonic kidney and is indispensable for larval life. [ GOC:mtg_kidney_jan10 ]
