Why is your bladder situated below the kidneys?
Wiki User
Answered 2013-08-18 06:29:29
Bladder is not situated below the kidney. It was situated posterior to the kidney. You have adapted the erect posture and so bladder came below the kidney. Actually it was posterior because it was convenient to have it near the outlet.
