1. Identifying Lab Equipment

2. a simple container for stirring, mixing and heating liquids Beaker

3. produces a single open gas flame, which is used for heating, sterilization, and combustion Bunsen burner

4. usually between 18 and 25 mm on a side. The cover glass serves two purposes: (1) it protects the microscope's objective lens from contacting the specimen, and (2) it creates an even thickness (in wet mounts) for viewing Coverslip

5. When placed properly through a specimen, dissection pins keep the specimen from moving during the cutting and examination. This allows for precise incisions that are necessary when dissecting small specimens. With full-body specimens, the pins are also used to hold skin and other tissue out of the way and to allow access to the internal organs of the specimen. Dissecting pins

6. A dissecting scissor is a pair of scissors that is used in a classroom setting for dissections or in medical and surgical settings. The scissors may be made from stainless steel or nickel and come in sharp, semiblunt, angled or straight-blade options. Dissecting scissors

7. A dissecting tray provides containment for materials resulting from the dissection process. It allows enough space for the analysis of the specimen to take place while also providing drainage for water and other substances. Dissecting tray

8. Medicine droppers are tools usually made from a long piece of glass or plastic with a flexible rubber handle that is used to suction liquids in and out of the device. Medicine dropper

9. a handheld, hinged instrument used for grasping and holding objects. Forceps are used when fingers are too large to grasp small objects or when many objects need to be held at one time while the hands are used to perform a task. The term 'forceps' is used almost exclusively within the medical field. Forceps

10. a pipe with a wide, often conical mouth and a narrow stem. It is used to channel liquid or fine-grained substances into containers with a small opening. Without a funnel, spillage would occur. funnel

11. measuring volumes (amounts) of liquids. This piece of equipment is used routinely, although it is only moderately accurate compared to other tools Graduated cylinder

12. A magnifying glass (called a hand lens in laboratory contexts) is a convex lens that is used to produce a magnified image of an object. The lens is usually mounted in a frame with a handle Hand lens

13. microscope

14. Glass slides are used in laboratories to hold specimens underneath a microscope for observation. Glass is the chosen material because it allows light from the microscope to easily pass through and illuminate the specimen. The glass slide containing the specimen is placed between the two stage clips on the microscope. Glass slide

15. Petri dish

16. a laboratory tool commonly used in chemistry, biology and medicine to transport a measured volume of liquid, often as a media dispenser. Pipettes come in several designs for various purposes with differing levels of accuracy and precision, from single piece glass pipettes to more complex adjustable or electronic pipettes. pipette

17. probe

18. A metric ruler is used to measure the length, height and width of an object or the distance between two points, objects or places. Depending on the length of the metric ruler, it can be divided into millimeters, centimeters, decimeters or meters Metric ruler

19. forms of protective eyewear that usually enclose or protect the area surrounding the eye in order to prevent particulates, water or chemicals from striking the eyes. Safety goggles

20. a small and extremely sharp bladed instrument used for surgery, anatomical dissection Scalpel

21. Test tube

22. Test tube rack

23. Thermometer

24. used to measure masses very precisely; the reading error is 0.05 gram. With the pan empty, move the three sliders on the three beams to their leftmost positions, so that the balance reads zero Triple-beam balance
