Question 13 (1 point) 4) Listen The sphincter is a muscle that prevents urine from exiting the bladder until you are ready to urinate. True False

False. The sphincter muscle *controls* the flow of urine out of the bladder. It remains closed to prevent urine from exiting until you are ready to urinate, at which point it relaxes to allow urination. So, while it *prevents* uncontrolled exit, its function is more accurately described as *controlling* the exit.
