What is a "sink"?
A sink is a plumbing fixture used for washing hands, dishes, and other items. It typically has a basin to hold water, a faucet to control the water flow, and a drain to remove waste water. Sinks are commonly found in kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms. They are made from materials like porcelain, stainless steel, or stone, designed for easy cleaning and durability. Sinks are essential for everyday tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and personal hygiene.
