What will happen if the stretch receptors of the urinary bladder wall are totally removed?
Options
(a) Micturition will continue
(b) Urine will continue to collect normally in the bladder
(c) There will be no micturition
(d) Urine will not collect in the bladder
Correct Answer:
There will be no micturition
Explanation:
Micturition is same as urination. Urination of micturition is the act of passing urine which is a reflux phenomenon. As urine accumulates in bladder the stretch receptors are activated that pass the stimulas to the spinal cord. In the absence of stretch receptors the urine would get collected and probably overflow.
