About this document
Overview of the Urinary System by KathleenNicole De Castro Enfectana is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The urinary system filters waste from the blood and forms urine in the kidneys. Urine passes from the kidneys through ureters to the bladder, where it is stored until urination. The bladder contains smooth muscle that contracts to expel urine through the urethra. The urinary system eliminates waste while maintaining mineral ion balance and extracellular fluid homeostasis.
