D
urethra
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ureters are long, narrow tubes that drain urine from your kidneys to your bladder. Normally one ureter leads from each kidney to your bladder. In the case of duplicated systems, two ureters drain a single kidney. One ureter drains the upper pole of your kidney and the other drains the lower pole.

Detailed explanation-3: -These areas are: the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ), the ureterovesical junction (UVJ), and the crossover of the common iliac arteries. The UPJ is where the pelvis of the kidney transitions into the ureter and the UVJ is where the ureters enter the bladder.

Detailed explanation-4: -So, the correct answer is ‘Ureter’.

Detailed explanation-5: -The renal vein takes blood back to the body after it has passed through the kidney. The renal hilum is the area where the renal artery, renal vein and ureter enter the kidney.
