Which of the following is FALSE about urine? Urinary tract infections are primarily caused by motile enterics. UTI's are more common in women than men due to the length of the urethra and urethra/anal distance. The urinary tract is always sterile and not susceptible to infectious agents. Leptospira interrogans can be secreted through the urine of infected animals. The flow of urine prevents the infection of the lining of the urethra.
