You can put almost anything in agar jelly, the thing I find most interesting to do is coughing inside of it.

Why would you record the mass of the empty petri dish in an experiment?

The mass of an empty petri dish may be recorded in order to conduct weighing by difference. After a substance is added to the dish, the weight of the added substance can be calculated by taking the difference between the combined mass and the mass of the empty dish. The tare function on a scale performs this calculation automatically. However, the tare can easily be reset, and thus it is necessary to write the mass down so that it will not be lost.
