What is a "beaker"?
A beaker is a type of drinking vessel typically made of plastic and often without a handle. It is characterized by its cylindrical shape with a wide opening and straight sides. Beakers are commonly used for serving beverages such as water, juice, or soft drinks, particularly in informal settings such as schools, picnics, or outdoor events. They are lightweight, durable, and easy to clean, making them suitable for use by children or for serving drinks on-the-go. Beakers may come in various sizes and colors, and they are often stackable for convenient storage.
