Detailed explanation-2: -In a normal urinary tract, each kidney is connected to one ureter (a tube that drains urine into the bladder). Children with a duplex kidney (also called a duplicated collecting system) have two ureters coming from a single kidney.
Detailed explanation-3: -Most of us are born with 2 ureters, the tube that drains the urine from each kidney into the bladder. But some babies are born with 2 ureters that drain a single kidney. In these cases, one ureter drains the upper part of the kidney and the second ureter drains the lower part of the kidney.
Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -The urinary system is divided into two parts. The upper urinary system includes the kidneys and ureters. The lower urinary system includes the bladder and urethra. The kidneys remove waste and extra fluid from the blood to make urine.
