Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Before entering the ureters, urine collects in the-
A
urinary bladder
B
renal cortex
C
glomeruli
D
renal pelvis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Urine is made in the renal tubules and collects in the renal pelvis of each kidney. The urine flows from the kidneys through the ureters to the bladder.

Detailed explanation-2: -Urine is made in the kidney cortex and then collects in the center of the kidney, called the renal pelvis, before draining into the ureters, the tubes that connect the kidney to the bladder. Once enough urine collects in the bladder, a person will urinate-the urine goes out of the body through the urethra.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bladder. This triangle-shaped, hollow organ is located in the lower abdomen. It is held in place by ligaments that are attached to other organs and the pelvic bones. The bladder’s walls relax and expand to store urine, and contract and flatten to empty urine through the urethra.

Detailed explanation-4: -The abdominal ureter is the segment of the ureter that extends from the renal pelvis to the iliac vessels. The pelvic ureter extends from the iliac vessels to the bladder[3].
