Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which sequence represents the correct order that a molecule of urea will pass through in the urinary system?
A
Bowman’s capsule, nephronic tubules, collecting duct, ureter, bladder, urethra
B
glomerulus, Bowman’s capsule, nephronic tubules, collecting duct, ureter, bladder, urethra
C
glomerulus, Bowman’s capsule, nephronic tubules, collecting duct, urethra, bladder, ureter
D
Bowman’s capsule, glomerulus, nephronic tubules, ureter, collecting duct, bladder, urethra
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Kidney ureters bladder urethra’.

Detailed explanation-2: -The urine flows out of the nephron tubule into a collecting duct. It passes out of the kidney through the renal pelvis, into the ureter, and down to the bladder.

Detailed explanation-3: -Urea is filtered across the glomerulus and enters the proximal tubule. The concentration of urea in the ultrafiltrate is similar to plasma, so the amount of urea entering the proximal tubule is controlled by the GFR.
