- Gout—a condition that results in joint swelling and pain—iscaused by the formation of sodium urate (NaC5H3N4O3) crystalswithin tendons, cartilage, and ligaments. Sodium urate precipitatesout of blood plasma when uric acid levels become abnormallyhigh. This can happen as a result of eating too many rich foodsand consuming too much alcohol, which is why gout is sometimesreferred to as the “disease of kings.” If the sodium concentration inblood plasma is 0.140 M and Ksp for sodium urate is 5.76 * 10-8,what minimum concentration of urate results in precipitation?arrow_forwardwhat type of epithelium makes of the filtration membrane? simple cuboidal epithelium, simple squamous epithelium, or transitional epithelium.arrow_forwardosmoregulation and Its Function in our Bodyarrow_forward
