The stores the urine until a person finds a suitable time and place to urinate, or eliminate urine from the body. Other medical words for urination are and voiding. Urine produced in the kidneys enters the bladder via the ureters and exits the body via the urethra. Several muscles work together to keep urine in the bladder until a person can urinate. Two allow the passage of urine through to the urethra when it is time to urinate.

Explanation:

The Urinary System:

The organs, tubes and muscles that produce, store and excrete urine are part of the urinary system. It consists of:

Two kidneys (produce urine by filtering blood)Two ureters (carry urine from kidneys to bladder)Bladder (stores urine until excreted)Two sphincter muscles (control the flow of urine from the bladder)Urethra (allows excretion of urine from bladder)

The process of urination relies majorly on the control of sphincter muscles of the bladder by the modulatory centers in the central and peripheral nervous system. The two sphincter muscles work in an antagonistic manner. When the bladder is being filled, the detrusor muscle, a complex of smooth muscles, relaxes to accommodate the urine. Whereas, the sphincter muscle, located at the base of the bladder,contracts to prevent leakage of the urine.

During urination, the detrusor muscle contracts to expel the urine while the sphincter muscle relaxes to enable the excretion of urine through the urethra
