Question

With a dilated ureter, this causes what two things to occur:

a) Increased urine output and decreased bladder pressure
b) Decreased urine output and increased bladder pressure
c) Increased urine output and increased bladder pressure
d) Decreased urine output and decreased bladder pressure

Answer 1

A dilated ureter can cause increased urine output and increased bladder pressure.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilated ureter can cause increased urine output and increased bladder pressure.

When the ureter is dilated, it means that the tube connecting the kidney to the bladder is wider than normal. This allows more urine to flow from the kidney to the bladder, resulting in increased urine output.

The increased urine volume in the bladder leads to increased bladder pressure since the bladder has to accommodate and store a larger amount of urine.
