The system consists of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra, which is the only structure not visible in the sculpture above. The main function of the urinary system is to eliminate the waste products of metabolism from the body by forming and excreting urine. Between 1 and 2 liters of urine are normally produced every day in a healthy individual.
