Urine flows down the ureters due to a combination of gravity and peristaltic movements. The smooth muscle in the walls of the ureters contracts rhythmically, creating waves that propel urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Additionally, the pressure generated by the production of urine in the kidneys aids in this movement.
