Peristaltic waves
The 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.
