Correct answer
D. There will be no micturition
Step-by-step solution
The urinary bladder is a pear shaped, hollow muscular organ situated in the pelvic cavity, which is made up of smooth and involuntary muscles. The lumen of urinary bladder is lined by transition epithelium, which has great power of stretching. If stretch receptors of urinary bladder wall are totally removed, the urine will continue to collect normally in the bladder.
