Answer:

Graduated Cylinder

Step-by-step explanation:

Graduated cylinders are generally more accurate and precise than laboratory flasks and beakers, but they should not be used to perform volumetric analysis; volumetric glassware, such as a volumetric flask or volumetric pipette, should be used, as it is even more accurate and precise.

Hopefully this helped!
