Immunosuppressants, by it's name itself, suppresses or inhibits the immune system for functioning in a certain amount of time. It is administered usually during transplant surgeries, so that the new cells of the organ does not get killed by the recipient's immune system.

to decrease antibody production to reduce the attacks on the new organ

Explanation:

immunosuppressants are a medicine that makes the immune system less effective by disrupting the replication process of lymphocytes that produce antibodies used for organ transplants

When an automatic battery is fully charged the sulfuric acid and water mixture will have a specific gravity of about

Archy [21]

the specific gravity of pure sulfuric acid is---------> approximately 1.835 g / cm3

the specific gravity of water is -------------------- >1.000 g / cm3.

The electrolyte, that is, the dissolution of sulfuric acid in water, is usually at a rate of 36% acid, so that, in a fully charged element, we can deduce the electrolyte density, is 1.295 g / cm3. (see attached table)

The specific gravity is actually the difference in the weight of water compared to a specific fluid. It is measured with a hydrometer

A protein biochemist attempted to determine the amino acid sequence of a decapeptide. Use the results from the trypsin, chymotry

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The possible sequence of the decapeptide is Met-Val-Lys-Tyr-Thr-Trp-Ala-Arg-Pro-Phe.

Explanation:

The cyanogen bromide cleaves the carboxyl end of Met (methionine and non-peptide). Trypsin cleaves on the C-terminal of Arg and Lys, however, not on the N-terminal of Pro, which signifies that Lys is the last amino acid in T2. Hence, Met-Val-Lys----. The middle part of the sequence can be predicted from the digestion done by chymotrypsin.

The chymotrypsin cleaves on the C terminal of Phe, Trp, Tyr, however, not on the N side of Pro. CT3 exhibit Lys, Met, Tyr, Val, as Met-Val and Tyr are the initial three amino acids, therefore, Tyr must be the fourth one. Now the sequence will be Met-Val-Lys-Tyr...

CT1 possesses Ala, Arg, Phe, Pro, as chymotrypsin cleaves the C side of the Phe, thus, the last amino acid should be Phe. Also, CT1 has Ala as the first amino acid. Also, trypsin does not cleave on the N-end of Pro. Thus, the sequence of CT1 strands will be Ala-Arg-Pro-Phe.

In CT2, chymotrypsin cleaves on the C-side of trp. Thus, the sequence of CT2 strands as Thr-Trp is found in the middle. Thus, the whole sequence of the decapeptide strand will be:

Met-Val-Lys-Tyr-Thr-Trp-Ala-Arg-Pro-Phe.
