Immunosuppressant medications are prescribed to kidney transplant recipients in order to prevent the transplant from being rejected. These medications weaken the immune system.

<h3>What do you understand by immunosuppressant?</h3>

A substance that lowers the body's immunological reactions. It weakens the body's defenses against illnesses including cancer and other infections. To prevent a person from rejecting a bone marrow or organ transplant, immunosuppressive medications may be administered. Immunosuppressants aid in "calming" (or managing) the immune system in your body. Rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory diseases are helped by this medication. Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's illness. Immunosuppressant classes include: biologicals, including adalimumab. inhibitors of calcineurin, like tacrolimus and cyclosporine. Corticosteroids (prednisone) (prednisone).

Thus from above conclusion we can say that immunosuppressant medications are prescribed to kidney transplant recipients in order to prevent the transplant from being rejected. These medications weaken the immune system.

20% of wood is damaged and thrown away and only 20 kilograms is left vv is its original weight​
sesenic [268]
The original weight is 4.

Explanation:

20%= 1/5 if u don’t know the percentage then u can simply by doing..

20/100 then u divide it. U can do this by any other numbers such as 2, 4,5,10 and 20. U can do which ever way u like but i would recommend doing it either by 10 or 20.

So if we divide it by 20 we do...

20/100 divided by 20= 1/5

Or

20/100 divided by 10= 2/10

2/10 divided by 2 = 1/5

You can see the bigger the number that fits in is faster, although u can do it any way u feel like doing.

So we have got 1/5 from 20%. Now we do...

1/5 divided by 20. So when we do this, we use the bottom number to divide it and the top number to times it.

So..

1/5 u could use as 20 divided by 5..
Then 1 times the number that u get from ur before sum.

The answer is 4.

Because 1/5= 20 divided by 5 = 4
Since we have a 1 left we do..

4 times 1 which is... 4.

( u don’t need to show these parts in doing ur working, but i am doing these so they can help u understand)

So the answer is 4 and is the original weight.

I hope this is clear and helps u! :D
