Solution

The correct option is A Smooth muscles
The muscle present in the urinary bladder is called 'detrusor muscle' and is a smooth muscle mostly present in the walls of the bladder. It is a single-unit smooth muscle as the whole bundle contacts in order to perform various functions of the organ. These muscles relax in order to store urine in the bladder and contract when urine is to be released.
So, the correct answer is option A.
