What type of cell lines the bladder?
The bladder is lined with transitional epithelial cells, which are also known as urothelial cells. These cells are unique in that they can stretch to accommodate the volume of urine in the bladder and then contract to expel the urine during urination.
What body organ stores urine?
The bladder stores urine before it is urinated out of the body.
What is a gland near the bladder that adds fluid to semen called?
The gland near the bladder that adds fluid to semen is called the prostate gland. It produces a milky fluid that contributes to semen volume and helps nourish and protect sperm.
What are the potential causes of bleeding in the bladder infection?
Potential causes of bleeding in the bladder infection include irritation of the bladder lining, inflammation of the bladder walls, or the presence of bladder stones.
What is the stimulus of urination?
When the volume of urine reaches approximately 300 mL in adult,stretch receptors in the bladder wall transmit impulses to the central nervous system.That indidual then has a conscious desire to micturate. the afferent impulses enter the second,third,and fourth sacral segments of the spinal cord.Efferent impulses leave the cord from the same segments and pass via the parasympathetic preganglionic nerve fibers in the hypogastric plexuses to the bladder wall,where they synapse with postganglionic neurons.
What is cystometry?
Cystometry is a test of bladder function in which pressure and volume of fluid in the bladder is measured during filling, storage, and voiding.
How do you calculate the volume of a bladder?
To calculate the volume of a bladder, you can use the water displacement method. Fill the bladder with water until it is full, then pour the water into a measuring container to determine the volume. Alternatively, if you know the dimensions of the bladder, you can use geometric formulas based on its shape (e.g., for a spherical bladder, use the formula (V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3)). Make sure to convert all measurements to the same units before calculating.
How much does a bladder weigh?
That depends on the size of the bladder, for instance the bladder of a shrew will weigh much less than the bladder of an elephant.
What volume can a full bladder hold?
3 and 1/3 cups
What is the biggest amount of urine as a bladder capacity which is registered in literature in normal and neurogenic bladder?
The largest bladder capacity was recorded to have a volume of 10 litres and was set in place by Jacquieline Smith.
What is a BVI test from your urologist?
A BVI test, or Bladder Volume Index test, is a urological assessment designed to evaluate bladder function and capacity. It involves measuring the volume of urine in the bladder and assessing how well the bladder stores and releases urine. This test can help diagnose conditions such as overactive bladder or urinary retention. Your urologist may recommend it if you're experiencing urinary symptoms to determine the best course of treatment.
What happen if you pop a vein in your bladder?
If you pop a vein in your bladder, there will be much bleeding.
What is the function of transition?
Transitional epithelium consists of multiple layers of epithelial cells which can contract and expand. Its primary function is to elongate when the bladder starts to fill, allowing an increase in bladder volume.
Why do guinea pigs get bladder stones?

Why does a woman urinates often?
