The ureter is a small tube that links the kidneys and bladder. Urine travels from the kidneys to the bladder via the ureter.
The bladder is a hollow, muscular organ located just above and behind the pubic bone in the pelvis. The bladder’s two primary functions are urine storage and excretion.
The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. It eliminates waste, regulates fluid balance, and maintains proper electrolyte levels.
