Picture of the Bladder All rights reserved. The urinary bladder is a muscular sac in the pelvis, just above and behind the pubic bone. When empty, the bladder is about the size and shape of a pear. Urine is made in the kidneys, and travels down two tubes called ureters to the bladder. The bladder stores urine, allowing urination to be infrequent and voluntary.

Components of the Urinary System The kidneys form the urine and account for the other functions attributed to the urinary system. The ureters carry the urine away from kidneys to the urinary bladder, which is a temporary reservoir for the urine. The urethra is a tubular structure that carries the urine from the urinary bladder to the outside.

- The kidneys filter your blood and make urine. The urine is carried to the bladder by two tubes called the ureters. The bladder is like a balloon which stores urine. It is a stretchy bag, made of muscle tissue, and can hold about 500mls (about 3 cups) of urine. When we empty our bladder, the urine passes down a tube called the urethra and out of the body. The urethra in men passes through the prostate gland and down the penis.

What is Urine? The urine then passes from the kidneys to the urinary bladder by way of the two ureters. The ureters are basically muscular tubes which pass the urine to the bladder, and the primary function of the ureters. The urine then collects in your bladder until… you feel the urge. As you urinate, the urine then leaves the bladder and expels from your body through your urethra. As we stated earlier, the urethra opening to expel the urine is located in different places for men and women. For men, the urethra opens at the tip of the penis.
