TRUE
Pelvic parts of the urinary system include :
Terminal parts of the ureter
Bladder

Empty bladder is shaped like a three-sided pyramid T or F
TRUE
Top corners of the Trigone:
Opening of the ureter
Bottom corner of the trigone:

Nerves of the bladder both sympathetic and parasympathetic?
Inferior Hypogastric Nerves
Superior Vesical Artery comes off the _____ Artery
Umbilical Artery
Parasympathetic (Pelvic Splanchnic) –>
Contract or Relax the Detrusor –>
Relax or Contract Internal Urethral Sphincter
Parasympathetic (Pelvic Splanchnic) –>
Contract Detrusor –>
Relax Internal Urethral Sphincter
allows for urination
“rest & digest”
Sympathetic –>
Relax or Contract Detrusor–>
Contract or Relax Internal Urethral Sphincter
Sympathetic –>
Relax Detrusor–>
Contract Internal Urethral Sphincter
