    In order to safely enter a laboratory, you must:(Select the correct answer)

    • Wear a lab-coat and safety spectacles

    • Wear gloves

    • Tie your hair up

    • You don't need to wear a labcoat or safety specs if you are not doing experimental work

    Correct Answer
    A. Wear a lab-coat and safety spectacles
    Explanation
    To safely enter a laboratory, it is important to wear a lab-coat and safety spectacles. This is because a lab-coat helps to protect your clothing from any potential spills or splashes of chemicals or other hazardous substances. Safety spectacles, on the other hand, protect your eyes from any potential hazards such as flying debris or chemical splashes. Both of these protective measures are necessary to ensure personal safety and minimize the risk of accidents or injuries while working in a laboratory environment.

    When you are sitting in your desk chair the height of your backrest should be adjusted so that the lumbar pad supports the natural curve of your back

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The correct answer is true because when sitting in a desk chair, it is important to adjust the height of the backrest to support the natural curve of your back. This helps maintain proper posture and prevents strain on the lower back. The lumbar pad provides support to the lumbar region, which is the curve in the lower back. Adjusting the backrest height ensures that the lumbar pad aligns with the natural curve of your back, promoting comfort and reducing the risk of back pain or discomfort.

    The statement suggests that a narrow desk chair is ideal because it allows for sitting tightly with pressure applied to the thighs. However, this is not necessarily true.
