1. This scientific test tube can be considered the properties of parabola. This test tube is used in my biology lab couse. They are used to heat, hold and mix small quantities of liquid or solid chemical during the experiment. The bottom of the test tube is round U shape and make of borosilicate glass to withstand temperature changes and resistance the reaction of chemical. And the you can look through the glass to see the chemical reaction while doing the experiment.
