what is its nerve supply and blood supply ?

  #2

Arteries: superior, middle, and inferior vesical [derived from the anterior trunk of the hypogastric]
The obturator and inferior gluteal arteries also supply small visceral branches to the bladder
In the female additional branches are derived from the uterine and vaginal arteries.
Veins: form a complicated plexus on the inferior surface, and fundus near the prostate, and end in the hypogastric veins.
Nerves: are (1) fine medullated fibers from the third and fourth sacral nerves, and (2) non-medullated fibers from the hypogastric plexus. They are connected with ganglia in the outer and submucous coats and are finally distributed, all as non-medullated fibers, to the muscular layer and epithelial lining of the viscus.
