Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Beakers. A beaker is a simple container for stirring, mixing and heating liquids commonly used in many laboratories.
Detailed explanation-2: -Generally glass rods are made of Pyrex glass (chemically known as borosilicate glass). This used to accelerate the mixing of chemicals and liquids. ‘Stir’ is to mix something, hence ‘Stir rod’ is apt. Stirring is the process, so ‘Stirring rod’ is also correct.
