A tube which urine is removed from the body is the ____
A
bladder
B
kidney
C
ureter
D
urethra
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Urethra. This tube allows urine to pass outside the body. The brain signals the bladder muscles to tighten, which squeezes urine out of the bladder. At the same time, the brain signals the sphincter muscles to relax to let urine exit the bladder through the urethra.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -The urethra connects the distal portions of the urinary system, such as the urinary bladder, to the external environment and allows for urine excretion from the body.
