Answer:

The correct answer is option B. the ureter is capable of peristalsis like that of the gastrointestinal tract.

Explanation:

Ureters have transitional epithelium that provides peristaltic movement in ureters layers. Cells of transitional epithelium provide contraction and relax movements result in peristalsis that helps urine to move to the urinary bladder.

Urine does not passively move to the urinary bladder but drain with the help of the peristalsis waves or movements.

Thus, the correct answer is option C. the ureter is capable of peristalsis like that of the gastrointestinal tract.
