Understand the function of each organ listed in the urinary system: Kidney, Ureter, Urethra, and Bladder.
The kidney is responsible for filtering blood, removing waste, and balancing electrolytes, which includes the reabsorption of water.
The ureter is a tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder, and does not play a role in water reabsorption.
The urethra is a tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body, and does not play a role in water reabsorption.
