Urine exit through small tube called urethra from female body. It is about one inch long. This short length of urethra makes females vulnerable for urinary tract infections.

Is urine sterile or not?

Urine is generally considered sterile when it is produced by the kidneys and stored in the bladder. However, it can become contaminated with bacteria as it passes through the urethra, particularly during urination. In healthy individuals, urine typically does not contain pathogens, but certain conditions or infections can lead to the presence of bacteria or other microorganisms. Thus, while urine in the bladder is sterile, it may not be so once it exits the body.


What is the passage to the bladder?

The urethra is the passage from the bladder tot he outside world. The ureters are the passages from the kidneys to the bladder.


Where does urine go after it exist the kidneys?

After urine is produced in the kidneys, it flows into the ureters, which are two narrow tubes that transport urine to the bladder. Once in the bladder, urine is stored until it is ready to be expelled from the body. During urination, urine travels from the bladder through the urethra and is eliminated.


How does a human release urine?

Humans release urine by urinating. First waste is filtered through the blood, with the kidneys, then the urine that was extracted goes into the ureter, which is a tube connecting the kindeys to the bladder, once the bladder gets full, it inflates on sensitive nerve endings, then when humans urinate, the bladder passes through a tube called the urethra, which connects the bladder to the penis, and the urine passes through the penis opening.


What passes through nephron after its time to excete urine?

After the nephron has processed blood, the final urine passes through the collecting ducts, where it is concentrated and further modified before moving to the renal pelvis. From the renal pelvis, urine travels through the ureters to the bladder, where it is stored until excretion. Once the bladder is full, urine is expelled from the body through the urethra.


What processes take place during the period after the blood enters the kidneys till the urine leaves the body?

Blood flows to the kidney through the renal artery. Once in the kidney the blood flows through a series of smaller and smaller arteries until it gets to the glomerulus. The glomerulus filters blood and to be very simplistic creates a filtrate of the blood or "urine". This urine then flows through a series of progressively bigger tubules and ducts until it gets to the renal pelvis. At this point urine exits the kidney, it enters the ureter (long tube connecting kidney and bladder), and flows into the bladder where it is held until one desires to urinate. At this time urine flows out of the bladder and into the urethra. The urethra connects the bladder to the outside of the body.


Why is urine sterile?

Urine is considered sterile when it is produced in the kidneys, as it is formed from the filtration of blood and does not typically contain bacteria or other microorganisms. The urinary tract, including the kidneys and bladder, has natural defenses that help prevent infection. However, once urine leaves the body, it can become contaminated with bacteria from the skin or the environment. Thus, while urine is sterile in the bladder, it may not remain so after it exits the body.


How does the urinary system work?

First, blood flows through the kidneys, filtering out the Urea and other toxins. Within the kidneys there are these tubes called the loops of henle, which do the actual filtering. Then the urine flows to the bladder through tubes called ureters, where it is then expelled through the Urethra. The whole process is powered by gravity as well as the force of new incoming liquid (urine) from the kidneys.


What is the job of the urinarybladder?

The function of the urinary bladder is to act as a reservoir of urine. The kidneys filter the blood of waste products and the urine produced trickles down the two tubes called ureters which open in the bladder. Once the bladder is full, stretch receptors convey the sensation and creates a desire and urge to pass urine to empty the bladder.


What is the bladder a reservoir for?

The bladder works like this: The kidneys filter the blood and send these liquid wastes to the bladder, where it is stored. Once the bladder reaches it's full capacity of about 4 cups, it has to dump the waste out (which is our urine, or pee)


When blood circulates through the kidneys and filters out waste products where are the waste products sent next?

Once blood circulates through the kidneys and the waste products are filtered out, the waste is transformed into urine. The urine is then collected in the renal pelvis, from where it travels down the ureters to the bladder for storage. Eventually, urine is expelled from the body through the urethra during urination.


Is the inability to contain urine in the urinary bladder?

no once you are ready to let it go your bladder opens up and lets some of it out without letting the body fully releasing it
