Question

How is the urinary bladder able to hold
large amounts of urine?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Urinary bladder and urethra

The bladder expands when it fills up, like a balloon. Nerves in the bladder wall detect the expansion and send a signal to the brain, letting it know that the bladder is full. The urinary bladder can store up to 500 ml of urine in women and 700 ml in men.
