Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -From the calyxes, pee travels out of the kidneys through the ureters (pronounced: YUR-uh-ters) to be stored in the bladder (a muscular sac in the lower belly). When a person urinates, the pee exits the bladder and goes out of the body through the urethra (pronounced: yoo-REE-thruh), another tube-like structure.

Detailed explanation-2: -The bladder is a hollow muscular sac that stores urine. It is located in the pelvis and is part of the urinary system. As well as the bladder, the urinary system includes two kidneys, two tubes called ureters leading from the kidneys into the bladder, and another tube called the urethra leading out of the bladder.

Detailed explanation-3: -Urinary bladder is a small bag-like structure which receives urine from both the ureters. Urinary bladder stores the urine till it is released through the urethra.
