Solution

The correct option is A He will still survive and remain normal

Most people who are born without a kidney (or with only one working kidney) lead normal, healthy lives. A person may have had one kidney removed during an operation in order to treat an injury or a disease like cancer. A person may have donated one kidney to a person who needed a kidney transplant. The other kidney will enlarge in size to perform extra work of the missing kidney.
