Safety SymbolsThese safety symbols are used in laboratory and field investigations in this book to indicate
possible hazards. Learn the meaning of each symbol and refer to this page often. Rememberto wash your hands thoroughly after completing lab procedures.

Demonstrating Safe Lab PracticesThe biology laboratory is a safe place to work if you follow standard safety procedures. Being
responsible for your own safety helps to make the entire laboratory a safer place for every-one. When performing MiniLabs and BioLabs, read and apply the caution statements and safetysymbols. Safety symbols are explained on the previous page. The safety guidelines and rulesgiven here will help protect you and others during laboratory and field investigations.
Preventing Accidents• Always wear chemical splash safety goggles (not
glasses) in the laboratory. Goggles should fit snugglyagainst the face to prevent any liquid from enteringthe eyes. Put on your goggles before beginning thelab and wear them throughout the entire activity,cleanup, and hand washing. Only remove goggleswith your teacher’s permission.
• Wear protective aprons and the proper type ofgloves as instructed by your teacher.
• Keep your hands away from your face and mouthwhile working in the laboratory.
• Do NOT wear sandals or other open-toed shoes inthe lab.
• Remove jewelry on hands and wrists before doinglab work. Loose jewelry, such as chains and longnecklaces, should be removed to prevent them fromgetting caught in equipment.
• Do NOT wear clothing that is loose enough to catchon anything. If clothing is loose, tape or tie it down.
• Tie back long hair to keep it away from flames andequipment.
• Do NOT use hair spray, mousse, or other flam-mable hair products just before or during laboratorywork where an open flame is used. These productsignite easily.
• Eating, drinking, chewing gum, applying makeup,and smoking are prohibited in the laboratory.
• Students are expected to behave properly in the lab-oratory. Practical jokes and fooling around can leadto accidents and injury.
• Students should notify their teacher about allergiesor other health conditions that they have which canaffect their participation in a lab.
Making Wise Choices• When obtaining consumable laboratory materials,
carefully dispense only the amount you will use. Ifyou dispense more than you will use, check withyour teacher to determine if another student can usethe excess.
• If you have consumable materials left over aftercompleting an investigation, check with your teacherto determine the best choice for either recycling ordisposing of the materials.
Working in the Laboratory and the Field• Study all procedures before you begin a laboratory
or field investigation. Ask questions if you do notunderstand any part of the procedure.
• Do NOT begin any activity until directed to do soby your teacher.
• Work ONLY on procedures assigned by yourteacher. NEVER work alone in the laboratory.
• Do NOT handle equipment without permission.Use all lab equipment for their intended uses only.
• Collect and carry all equipment and materials toyour work area before beginning the lab.
• Remain in your own work area unless given permis-sion by your teacher to leave it. Keep your work areauncluttered.
• Learn and follow procedures for using specific lab-oratory equipment such as balances, microscopes,hot plates, and burners. Do not hesitate to ask forinstructions about how to use any lab equipment.
• When heating or rinsing a container such as a testtube or flask, point it away from yourself and others.
1108 REFERENCE HANDBOOKMatt Meadows
• Do NOT taste, touch, or smell any chemical or sub-stance unless instructed to do so by your teacher.
• If instructed to smell a substance in a container, holdthe container a short distance away and fan vaporstoward your nose.
• Do NOT substitute other chemicals/substances forthose in the materials list unless instructed to do soby your teacher.
• Do NOT take any materials or chemicals outside ofthe laboratory.
• Stay out of storage areas unless you are instructed tobe there and are supervised by your teacher.
Laboratory Cleanup• Turn off all burners, gas valves, and water faucets
before leaving the laboratory. Disconnect electricaldevices.
• Clean all equipment as instructed by your teacherand return everything to the proper storage places.
• Dispose of all materials properly. Place disposableitems in containers specifically marked for that typeof item. Do not pour liquids down a drain unlessyour teacher instructs you to do so.
• Clean up your work and sink area. • Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm
water after each activity and BEFORE removingyour goggles.
Emergencies• Inform the teacher immediately of any mishap,
such as fire, bodily injuries or burns, electricalshock, glassware breakage, and chemical or otherspills.
• In most instances, your teacher will clean up spills.Do NOT attempt to clean up spills unless you aregiven permission and instructions on how to do so.
• Know the location of the fire extinguisher, safetyshower, eyewash, fire blanket, and first-aid kit. Afterreceiving instruction, you can use the safety shower,eyewash, and fire blanket in an emergency withoutyour teacher’s permission. However, the fire extin-guisher and the first-aid kit should only be used byyour teacher or, in an extreme emergency, with yourteacher’s permission.
• If chemicals come into contact with your eyes orskin, notify your teacher immediately then flushyour skin or eyes with large quantities of water.
• If someone is injured or becomes ill, only a profes-sional medical provider or someone certified in firstaid should perform first-aid procedures.

Six-Kingdom ClassificationThe classification used in this text combines information gathered from the
systems of many different fields of biology. For example, phycologists,biologists who study algae, have developed their own system of classification,as have mycologists, biologists who study fungi. The naming of animals andplants is controlled by two completely different sets of rules. The six-kingdomsystem, although not ideal for reflecting the phylogeny of all life, is useful forshowing relationships. Taxonomy is an area of biology that evolves just like thespecies it studies. In this Appendix, only the major phyla are listed, and onegenus is named as an example. For more information about each taxon, refer to the chapter in the text in which the group is described.

Three-Domain ClassificationIncreasingly, biologists are classifying organisms into categories larger than kingdoms
called domains. The three domains are: domain Bacteria, which includes the KingdomEubacteria; domain Archaea, which includes the Kingdom Archaebacteria; and the domainEukarya, which includes protists, fungi, plants, and animals. With discoveries, this classifi-cation system may change.

Elements 116 and
118 were thought to
have been created in a laboratory in 1999. In July 2001, the claim
was retracted
because the experim
ental results could not be repeated. Currently, there is no evidence to support the existence of these elem
