Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The urinary bladder can store up to 500 ml of urine in women and 700 ml in men. People already feel the need to urinate (pee) when their bladder has between 200 and 350 ml of urine in it.
Detailed explanation-2: -Most adults make at least 500 mL of urine in 24 hours (a little over 2 cups).
Detailed explanation-3: -Normally, adults pass between 3 cups (700 milliliters) and 3 quarts (3 liters) of urine a day.
Detailed explanation-4: -A healthy bladder can hold one and a half to two cups (300-400mls) of urine (wee) during the day and about four cups (800mls) at night. It is normal to pass urine five or six times a day if you drink between 6-8 glasses of fluid.
