The human body cannot create urine without kidneys. Without renal (kidney) function, a person will die in just a few days.
The kidneys perform several functions in the body. One of these functions is to remove metabolic waste products from the blood. The kidneys secrete waste products in the form of urine, which is collected in the bladder until the person expels the urine from the body during urination (peeing).
The only way to perform the same waste removal function from the blood without using the kidneys is to carry out a medical procedure called dialysis.
In hemodialisis, the blood is removed from the body through a tube inserted into a vein. A pump regulates the rate of flow of blood removal, and pumps the blood through a filter that removes the metabolic byproducts. Then the filtered blood is returned to the body through a second tube inserted into another vein.
Peritoneal dialysis is a rarer form of dialysis in which a sterile cleansing fluid is pumped into the abdominal cavity through a catheter. The fluid remains inside the abdomen for a set period of time while it collects the metabolic waste products through a process called osmosis. Once the fluid has absorbed sufficient metabolic byproducts, the tainted fluid is flushed out of the abdominal cavity using the same catheter.
You can live with just one but the other kidney would have to be removed or the drainage of urine from that kidney would have to be rerouted.
The main organs of excretion that remove water and salt and produce urine are the kidneys. The kidneys filter waste products, excess salts, and water from the blood to form urine. Urine is then transported from the kidneys to the bladder through the ureters for elimination from the body.
The kidneys filter the blood to produce urine
The Ureter(s) [there are two of them] carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder.
Urine formation in the kidney
yes but you would have to walk around with a bag with urine and have a tube were the urine comes from the kidneys
retention?
Urine is produced in the kidneys. The kidneys filter waste products and excess substances from the blood to create urine, which is then transported to the bladder for storage and eventual elimination from the body.

Urine is produced by the kidneys, which filter waste and excess substances from the blood to create urine. The urine then travels from the kidneys to the bladder through the ureters before being excreted from the body through the urethra.
Urine is made in the kidneys
The kidneys produce urine.
No, urine is not produced by the liver; it is produced by the kidneys. The kidneys filter waste and excess substances from the blood to create urine, which then flows through the ureters to the bladder for storage. The liver plays a role in detoxifying substances and metabolizing nutrients, but it does not produce urine.
Urine is excreted from the kidneys.
None - BUT Urine from kidneys.
Yes, the urinary bladder stores urine produced in the kidneys.
