ureters:
|
each ureter is a long tube that transports urine from the renal pelvis to the urinary bladder
|
|
| 2 |
the wall of the ureter is composed of three layers:
|
adventitiamuscularismucosa
|
|
| 3 |
adventitia of ureter:
|
anchors ureteres to surrounding tissues
|
|
| 4 |
muscularis:
|
is composed of 2 layers of smooth muscle
|
|
| 5 |
contractions of muscularis initiate:
|
peristalsis to move urine thru ureter toward urinary bladder
|
|
| 6 |
mucosa:
|
has transitional epithelium and underlying lamina propia that contains collagen and elastic...
|
|
| 7 |

|
protect ureter from urine acidity
|
|
| 8 |
urinary bladder
|
hollow, muscular organ on the floor of the pelvic cavity posterior to the pubic bone
|
|
| 9 |
trigone:
|
a small triangular area on the floor of the bladder bounded by openings of ureters and urethra
|
|
| 10 |
the wall of the urinary bladder consists of 3 layers:
|
fibrous adventitiadetrusor musclemucosa
|
|
| 11 |
fibrous adventitia or urinary bladder:
|
anchors urinary bladder to surrounding tissues
|
|
| 12 |
detrusor muscle of urinary bladder:
|
have 3 layers of smooth muscle that form internal urethral sphincter at base of bladder
|
|
| 13 |
mucosa of urinary bladder:
|
has transitional epithelium
|
|
| 14 |
when bladder is relaxed:
|
mucosa exhibit rugae
|
|
| 15 |
