To suck up the liquid, press a button on the tip, like a pen. 03. TUBE RACKS: An instrument with holes on the surface where small tubes with substances are filled. 04. PETRI DISH: A kind of small round "box" made of glass to store cultures of cells, seeds, or microorganisms. 05. BALANCE: Used to accurately measure an object’s mass. 06.

NITRILE GLOVES: They protect hands from chemical substances and products and avoid illnesses and infections. They also prevent laboratory work from being contaminated. 10. PASTEUR PIPETTES: They are plastic tubes with pointed ends. They are used to suction and transfer very large quantities of liquid, but they do not measure it. They are very similar to a dropper. 11. STIRRER: A machine that helps to mix substances with a slight rocking or spinning, using a motor or a magnet. By turning its wheels, you can adjust the speed and the way it shakes. 12.
