What part of the nephron is connected to ureters?

Renal pelvis

The renal pelvis is the funnel-shaped dilation of the upper end of the ureter. It is connected to the minor calyces, which collect urine from the nephrons. The renal pelvis is lined with transitional epithelium and contains smooth muscle fibers that help to propel urine down the ureter.
