Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Urine is transported from the kidney to the urinary bladder via the ureters. The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body, but it does not transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The urogenital sinus is a common passageway for the urinary and reproductive systems in some species, but not in humans. The fundus is a term used to describe the upper portion of an organ, such as the uterus, and is not directly involved in urine transport.
