HUMAN HISTOLOGY In urine formation, where do the reabsorption and secretion take place?
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?
If blood pressure in the afferent arteriole leading to a glomerulus decreased, how would the rate of blood filtration within Bowman’s capsule be affected? Explain.
