The elimination of urine (micturition) is which process?
A
Secretion
B
Filtration
C
Reabsorption
D
Excretion
Explanation: 

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: -To urinate normally, all parts of your urinary tract must work together in proper order. When you are ready to go to the toilet, your bladder outlet muscles (urethral sphincter and pelvic floor) relax and your bladder wall muscles contract. Urine empties from your bladder through your urethra and exits your body.
