Which of the following connects the kidney with the urinary bladder?
Pelvis
Penis
Ureter
Urethra
Ureter
The human excretory system consists of kidneys, ureters, the urinary bladder, and the urethra. The ureter is a pair of thin, muscular tubes that transport urine from the renal pelvis of each kidney to the urinary bladder, where it is stored until excretion.
The human excretory system consists of kidneys, ureters, the urinary bladder, and the urethra. The ureter is a pair of thin, muscular tubes that transport urine from the renal pelvis of each kidney to the urinary bladder, where it is stored until excretion.
Think of the ureter like a plumbing pipe connecting a water purification system (kidney) to a storage tank (urinary bladder). Just as the pipe carries filtered water for storage, the ureter transports filtered metabolic waste (urine) for storage.
The kidneys filter blood to produce urine, which collects in the renal pelvis. Peristaltic contractions of the smooth muscle in the walls of the ureters facilitate the movement of urine unidirectionally toward the urinary bladder. This mechanism ensures that urine is continuously moved despite gravitational or physiological pressure.
The kidney produces urine via filtration of blood in nephrons.
The ureter is the duct that transports urine from the kidney to the bladder.
The urinary bladder stores urine temporarily until voiding is initiated.
The urethra is the final exit point for urine from the body.
Urological diagnostics
Kidney transplantation procedures
The renal pelvis is the funnel-shaped space in the center of the kidney where urine collects before entering the ureter.
Option A (Pelvis) is the internal structure of the kidney, not the connecting tube.
Option B (Penis) is the male reproductive organ and part of the urinary tract, but it is not the connector between kidney and bladder.
Option D (Urethra) is the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body, appearing after the bladder in the pathway.
C is correct тАФ The ureter is the muscular duct that specifically connects the kidney to the urinary bladder.
Remember the sequence: Kidney (production) тЖТ Ureter (transport) тЖТ Urinary Bladder (storage) тЖТ Urethra (exit).
