The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the formation of an insoluble mass of crystallized salts in the kidney. This condition is associated with certain kidney-related issues. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A: Glomerular Nephritis**: This refers to a group of diseases that affect the kidney's glomeruli. It does not specifically relate to the formation of crystallized salts. Therefore, this option is incorrect. - **Option B: Uremia**: Uremia is a condition characterized by high levels of urea in the blood due to kidney dysfunction. It does not involve the formation of crystallized salts. Thus, this option is also incorrect. - **Option C: Renal Calculi**: Renal calculi, commonly known as kidney stones, are indeed formed from the crystallization of salts and minerals in the kidney. This directly addresses the question, making it the correct answer. - **Option D: Renal Failure**: This condition refers to the failure of the kidneys to function properly. While it can lead to various complications, it does not specifically refer to the crystallization of salts. Hence, this option is incorrect. 3. **Conclusion**: After analyzing all the options, the correct answer to the question about the formation of an insoluble mass of crystallized salts in the kidney is **Option C: Renal Calculi**. ---
