Which is the best reason for using an Erlenmeyer flask instead of another piece of glassware while filtering the cabbage solution?

During filtration, the funnel sits in the flask’s opening while the liquid drains into it. An Erlenmeyer flask’s narrow mouth helps hold the funnel steady, reducing the chance that it tips or breaks. The flask is not the only container that can hold liquid or fit a funnel, and a narrow mouth does not make pouring easier.
