Answer 1

The answer for the given question above would be option A. Micturition is another term for urination. Urination is the act of passing urine which is a reflex phenomenon. As urine accumulates in the bladder, the stretch receptors then are activated and the stimulus is being passed to the spinal cord, then to the brain. In the absence of stretch receptors, the urine would would be accumulated and would probably enlarge.
