PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Urination or micturition primarily functions in the excretion of metabolic products and toxic wastes. The urinary tract also serves as a storage vessel of the waste filtered from the kidneys. Urine stored in the bladder is released from the bladder through the urethra upon a complex network of neurological function.

Detailed explanation-2: -noun. mic·tu·ri·tion ˌmik-chə-ˈri-shən. ˌmik-tə-: the act or process of micturating : urination. As the bladder fills, spinal sensory afferents relay this information to a region in the pons that coordinates micturition.

Detailed explanation-3: -Micturition is the process of eliminating water and electrolytes from the urinary system, commonly known as urinating. It has two discrete phases: the storage/continence phase, when urine is stored in the bladder; and the voiding phase, where urine is released through the urethra.

Detailed explanation-4: -The micturition reflex is a bladder-to-bladder contraction reflex for which the reflex center is located in the rostral pontine tegmentum (pontine micturition center: PMC). There are two afferent pathways from the bladder to the brain. One is the dorsal system and the other is the spinothalamic tract.
