Question 4 Urine travels from the collecting duct of the nephron to the: Urinary bladder Distal convoluted tubule Ureter Calyces

Urine travels from the collecting duct of the nephron to the ureters, which are muscular tubes that transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The journey isn't a quiet one; the ureters use peristaltic movements, contracting rhythmically to push urine down to where it will be stored until you're ready for a bathroom break! Once in the urinary bladder, urine can be held for varying lengths of time. Did you know that an average adult bladder can hold about 400 to 600 milliliters of urine? That’s like carrying around a pint of soda! Typically, you’ll feel the urge to go when it’s around half full, but be careful; holding it too long can lead to discomfort or even urinary issues!
