Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which sequence represents the correct pathway for the removal of urine from the human body?
A
kidney
B
kidney
C
ureter
D
urethra
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -From the calyxes, pee travels out of the kidneys through the ureters (pronounced: YUR-uh-ters) to be stored in the bladder (a muscular sac in the lower belly). When a person urinates, the pee exits the bladder and goes out of the body through the urethra (pronounced: yoo-REE-thruh), another tube-like structure.

Detailed explanation-2: -So, the correct answer is ‘Kidney–>Ureter–>Bladder–>Urethra’. Was this answer helpful?

Detailed explanation-3: -The renal medulla contains the renal pyramids, where urine formation takes place. Urine passes from the renal pyramids into the renal pelvis. This funnel-shaped structure occupies the central cavity of each kidney and then narrows as it extends out to join the ureter. Urine drains from the renal pelvis into the ureter.
