mesonephric collecting duct development

^ http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0061211


The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a collecting duct in the mesonephros over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The collecting duct regulates water, electrolyte and acid-base balance. The collecting duct is the final common path through which urine flows before entering the ureter and then emptying into the bladder. [ GOC:mtg_kidney_jan10 ]
