D
Feedback:
The urinary tract can be divided into the upper tract (kidneys and ureters) and the lower tract (bladder and urethra). The upper urinary tract filters the by-products of metabolism and adjusts the body's fluid and electrolyte balance. It also delivers urine to the lower tract. The lower urinary tract acts as a storage area until micturition (voiding, urination) occurs. Urine then flows through the structures of the lower urinary tract and out of the body.
