The ureters (or urinary ducts) transport urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder.
The urethra transports urine from the urinary bladder to outside the body.
The organs which produces urine are the kidneys. The last organ to hold/store urine before it is expelled from the body is the urinary bladder. The structures that transport urine are the ureters between the kidneys and the urinary bladder; and finally the urethra from the urinary bladder to outside of the body.
It is called the urethra.

What is used to move urine from the kidneys to the bladdar through the ureters?
The ureters move urine from the kidney to the bladder by something known as peristalsis. This is a wave like series of muscle contractions. The lining of smooth muscles in the ureter move the urine to the bladder.
What are the waves of contraction called that move the food to the stomach?
Peristalsis. The process of peristalsis begins in the esophagus when a bolus of food is swallowed. The strong wave-like motions of the smooth muscle in the esophagus carry the food to the stomach, where it is churned into a liquid mixture called chyme.
Which process propels the food through the digestive tract?
the process is peristalsis
What propels foods through the digestive tract?
peristalsis plays a large role in moving food through the digestive tract
Which organs use peristalsis?
Our Oesophagus' use Peristalsis to squeeze food down into our stomach. That's all I can think of! !
How does urine moves through the ureters?
Peristaltic wavesThe ureters move urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder by a mechanism known as peristalsis. Peristalsis is a wave-like series of smooth muscle contractions. The ureters have an inner lining of smooth muscle that carries out peristalsis in order to move urine to the bladder.
In what part of the urinary tract is peristalsis used?
The muscular layer in the ureters uses peristalsis to move the urine along to the urinary bladder
Where does the ureter transports urine from?
The ureters transport the urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder where it is temporarily stored before being carried out of the body through the urethra.
What process involves the contractions of smooth muscle that propel urine through the ureter?
peristalsis
What is ureteral peristalsis I had a test come back saying that questionable filling defects may be a result of ureteral peristalsis.?
Peristalsis is the "milking" of substances in the body. It is like sqeezing toothpaste from the tube. If there is something amuck with the ureter's peristalsis, that means the urine is not getting to the bladder like it should be.
Which process involves the contractions of smooth muscle that propel urine through the ureter?
Med Term book says peristalsis, but I thought peristalsis was from oral cavity to stomach only?!

What keeps urine from leaking?
The ureter tubes move urine from the kidneys to the bladder using something known as peristalsis. Peristalsis is a rhythmic and smooth contraction of muscle tissue to create a "wave." A good way to think of it is like squeezing tooth paste from a tube. It is due to this contraction of the muscles that pushes urine forward that it does not spill back in to the ureters.
Food moves through the digestive tract by wavelike contractions called?
Peristalsis is a series of involuntary smooth muscle contractions along the walls of the digestive tract that move food through the digestive tractperistalsis
What is the muscular contractions of the esophagus?
peristalsis.
In which place does peristalsis not occur?
. Peristalsis does not occur in the...
The squeezing motion that pushes food through the digestive system is called what?
Peristalsis.
