The syringe in a respirometer is used to adjust the volume of gas in the respirometer chamber. By pushing or pulling the plunger of the syringe, you can change the pressure inside the chamber, allowing you to measure the rate of gas exchange, such as oxygen consumption or carbon dioxide production, by the organism being studied.
The term syringe actually refers to the type of fluid that is in encased in the reservoir of the syringe. However, the function of a syringe is either to pull or push liquid from that reservoir.
A gas syringe is basically a device that fills up with a gas that is produced and gives a volume for that gas. Gas from a reaction is forced into the syringe due to pressure and the syringe plunger is forced out (just like how you suck up a liquid with a normal syringe). It can be used to detect the volume of gas produced in a chemical reaction for instance.See the Web Links to the left for more information.
The fluid or gas inside the syringe will decrease in temperature, therefore it will decrease in volume. This will cause the syringe piston to slide inside the syringe. This is because of the ideal gas law: PV=nRT. If the pressure (P), the number of moles (n), and the ideal gas constant (R) remains constant, than the change in volume must be proportional to the change in temperature.
A gas syringe is used to measure and dispense liquids or insert and withdraw a volume of gas. These syringes vary in sizes and can collect from 500 ml to 0.25 ml of gas.

It is used to hold a gas syringe in place when carrying out an experiment. The gas syringe will fill up with gas and you can read the amount of gas within it using the measuring lines. Hope it helped. Ask for any other queries that need answering.
A one-way valve or check valve at the entrance of the gas syringe prevents water from entering the syringe. This valve allows gas to pass through but blocks the passage of liquids like water.
Syringe
To ensure that the plunger can move and not stuck. Because if it is stuck, when the gas goes into the syringe, the plunger will not move back and so the values you received will be lower than the actual value
