Question

Which of the following enzymes is secreted by the urinary bladder?

• A. Amylase.
• B. Urease.
• C. Renin.
• D. The urinary bladder does not typically secrete enzyme.

Hint:

The urinary bladder is an organ for urine storage and excretion, not enzyme secretion. Enzymes like renin and amylase are secreted by specialized glands or organs such as the kidneys or pancreas.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Function of the urinary bladder. 
The urinary bladder is a storage organ for urine. It does not participate in enzymatic activity or secretion. Its primary role is to store urine and expel it during urination. 

Step 2: Analysis of options. 
Amylase: An enzyme secreted by the salivary glands and pancreas for carbohydrate digestion, not by the urinary bladder. 

Urease: An enzyme found in certain bacteria that hydrolyzes urea; not secreted by the urinary bladder. 

Renin: An enzyme secreted by the kidneys to regulate blood pressure, not by the urinary bladder. 

Urinary bladder: It does not secrete any enzymes; it functions solely as a storage and excretory organ. $$\therefore \text{The correct answer is: The urinary bladder does not typically secrete enzyme.}$$
