Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Urinary output does not directly aid in venous return as it involves the removal of excess fluids and waste from the body through the kidneys and urinary system, rather than facilitating the movement of blood back to the heart through the veins. Venous valves, the activity of skeletal muscles, and pressure changes in the thorax all play important roles in promoting venous return by preventing backflow, compressing the veins, and creating pressure gradients, respectively.
