toxic components through glomerular filtration, passing it on to the bladder via the renal tubules and eventually to the ureter. The bladder is responsible for storing the urine after leaving the kidney. It is a hollow muscular organ found in the pelvis area held by ligaments. The bladder is lined with three layers of transitional epithelium allowing it to protect its self from the acidity. It is unique as it has the capability to expand and contract since it is lined with a thick layer of…
