The bottle with skull and bones means there is a chemical hazard. The eye means there is an eye and face hazard. The fire means that there is a fire hazard. The clear glass bottles means there is a glassware hazard. The animal means there is an animal hazard. These are important because they tell the person in the lab what hazards are involved in an experiment.
