Evidence boundary

This answers Duke’s Urinary System Practice Question 2, preserving all three locations and all five options. It is a location-based question, not identification of a supplied microscope slide. No specimen observations are invented, and the answer does not claim every urinary structure or the whole urethra has urothelium.
