Detailed explanation-3: -As urine passes through the ureter, it does not passively drain into the bladder but rather is propelled by waves of peristalsis.

Detailed explanation-4: -The excretory system of human beings includes a pair of kidneys, a pair of ureters, a urinary bladder and a urethra. The ureter transports urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder, where it is stored. From the bladder, the urine reaches urethra and runs from the body to outside.
