Explanation:

• "The lima beans should not be eaten": Consumable items in labs (even food - like lima beans) may be contaminated, so not eating them is a safety guideline.
• "Warning labels on soil products need to be followed": Warning labels on lab materials (soil products here) are there for safety, so following them is a must.
• "Hands must be washed after handling any of the material used in this lab": Handling lab materials can transfer contaminants to hands, so washing hands after is a safety guideline.
• "Soil is common and can be disposed of nearly anywhere": This is incorrect as soil from labs may have contaminants and needs proper disposal, so it's not a safety guideline.

Answer:

• The lima beans should not be eaten.
• Warning labels on soil products need to be followed.
• Hands must be washed after handling any of the material used in this lab.
