Also, some antibiotics might be used o treat infections caused by some fungi and parasites (but not all of them).  

To remember this, you can just think about its name. Anti- means against, biotic- means life. These are substances used to attack certain living beings, such as bacteria. As viruses are not alive cells (they are DNI + proteins), antibiotics have no effect on them.

Mrrafil [7]

Samples of CSF for diagnostic purposes are normally obtained by placing the tip of a needle into the subarachnoid space, usually between the third and fourth lumbar vertebrae.

CSF (Cerebrospinal fluid) is made up of tissue that lines the hollow spaces in the brain, and that hollow space is known as ventricles. This fluid flows in and around the human brain and spinal cord in order to provide cushion them from injury and provide nutrients.

Subarachnoid space consists of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), major blood vessels, and cisterns. The main function of the subarachnoid space is to protect CSF which cushions the brain and the spinal cord, and It also provides nutrients and removes waste.

Explain two effects that the study of genes could have on the future.
adoni [48]
1) determine the probability of individuals inheriting a disease
2) In the future, new genetic mutations will arise, and knowing to understand genetics would be important in helping analyze the problem/mutation in genetic recombination.
3) Genetics allows us to link diseases to one another (pedigrees) by analyzing if they are recessive, dominant, and/or autosomal, this allows us, as scientists to be able to identify and classify future diseases, and to determine their inheritance pattern, in the future.
