The '''urethra''' is a mucosa-lined tube leading from the bladder to the outside of the body. The urethra allows the discharge of urine, as well as semen in males. In females the urethra's orifice lies between the vaginal opening and clitoris. In males it passes through the prostate gland and penis, and opens at the tip of the glans.
