The top half is slightly raised. Those- used here are 4 inches in diameter. (Original.) 1 A Petri dish, a much-used piece of apparatus in a laboratory, is simply a shallow, circular, glass dish with a flat bottom and perpendicular sides. It consists of two halves, a bottom and a top. These are very similar. The top half, being slightly larger, fits over the bottom one when the two halves are placed Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
