Which tube carries urine from the kidney to the bladder?

Urine travels from the kidney to the bladder via a muscular tube called the ureter. It begins at the renal pelvis, where urine collected from the kidney’s calyces enters, and then it travels down to the bladder using rhythmic contractions to push the fluid along. The bladder serves as a storage reservoir for urine until you void. The urethra is the conduit that transports urine from the bladder to the outside of the body. The renal pelvis is the funnel inside the kidney that collects urine before it enters the ureter.
