The human bladder is roughly the size and shape of a pear when empty, measuring approximately 12 centimeters in length and 6 centimeters in diameter. When full, it can expand to hold around 400-600 milliliters of urine before signaling the need to urinate.

A tube called the urethra. In males it is longer because it must travel through the penis.
