MT 30 LAB – H 3 years, 10 months ago The function of the urinary system is to filter blood and create urine as a waste by-product. The kidneys, renal pelvis, ureters, bladder, and urethra are all organs of the urinary system. The kidney and urinary systems aid in the elimination of liquid waste called urea, as well as the balance of chemicals like potassium, sodium, and water in the body.

• Bladder: This hollow, triangle-shaped organ is found in the lower abdomen. The bladder’s walls relax and expand to store urine, then contract and flatten to empty urine through the urethra.
• Two Kidneys: This pair of purplish-brown organs is found in the middle of the back, below the ribs. Their function is to eliminate waste products and drugs from the body, maintain fluid balance in the body, regulate blood pressure by releasing hormones, and control red blood cell production.
