A syringe is a simple reciprocating pump consisting of a plunger that fits tightly within a cylindrical tube called a barrel.
The plunger can be linearly pulled and pushed along the inside of the tube, allowing the syringe to take in and expel liquid or gas through a discharge orifice at the front end of the tube.
