ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The ureters are bilateral thin (3 to 4 mm) tubular structures that connect the kidneys to the urinary bladder, transporting urine from the renal pelvis into the bladder. The muscular layers are responsible for the peristaltic activity that the ureter uses to move the urine from the kidneys to the bladder.

Detailed explanation-2: -Two ureters. These narrow tubes carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Muscles in the ureter walls continually tighten and relax forcing urine downward, away from the kidneys.

Detailed explanation-3: -The wall of the ureter has three layers, the adventitia, or outer layer; the intermediate, muscular layer; and the lining, made up of mucous membrane. The adventitia consists of fibroelastic connective tissue that merges with the connective tissue behind the peritoneum.

Detailed explanation-4: -Two Ureters Each kidney has a narrow tube called a ureter, which carries urine from the kidney to the bladder. Muscles in the ureter walls tighten and relax forcing urine down this tube, away from the kidneys. If urine backs up, or stands still, a kidney infection can develop.

Detailed explanation-5: -Ureters. Thin tubes of muscle that connect your kidneys to your bladder and carry urine to the bladder.
