Ureters
The ureters are a pair of narrow tubes that transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder. They are roughly 10-12 inches (25-30 cm) long in adults and are located in the pelvis and abdominal cavity. The function of the ureters is to:<br><br>1. Collect urine from the kidneys through the calyces and renal pelvis.<br>2. Transport the urine to the bladder through muscular contractions and gravity.<br>3. Keep the urine flowing smoothly by peristalsis (wavelike muscle contractions).<br><br>The ureters are tube-like structures with a diameter of about 2-3 millimeters (0.08-0.12 inches). They are lined with smooth muscle and mucous membranes, which help to prevent the formation of kidney stones and infections. The walls of the ureters also have a layer of connective tissue that provides support and protects the surrounding structures.
