-- If you use the house to store a truckload of siding inside, then it's volume.
-- If you cover the outside of the house with siding, then it's surface area.
-- If you lay pieces of siding on the ground all around the foundation, then it's perimeter.

What is the area and perimeter of a cylinder?
There is no perimeter of a circle. Only flat shapes have perimeters. You can however, find the circumference, surface area, and volume.
Describe what is meant by each of the following terms cell volume cell surface area ratio of surface area to volume?
A cell's volume is the amount of material that can fit into the cell. A cell's surface area is the total amount of material that makes up the outside of the cell. The ratio of surface area to volume is the amount of surface area per unit volume of an object or collection of objects.
How is volume different from perimeter and area?
Volume is the amount of liquid a container can hold. Perimeter is the length of the borders outside a 2D figure. Area is the total space in a 2D shape.
How is perimeter and area different?
Perimeter is the distance around an object and area is the amount of space/volume in an object (square,rectangle,triangle)
How do you study Geometry?
You study all the formulas of volume, area, perimeter, and surface area of each shape

Do cubes have the same volume and surface area?
Yes Volume: Is the amount it takes to build it. Surface Area: Is how much is on the surface.

What does volume mean in math?
The answer to the volume term is the amount of square area in perimeter

Is the question the amount of water in a lake length area surface area or volume?
Volume
Volume and surface area of prisms a?
Volume = cross sectional area * lengthArea = 2* cross sectional area + perimeter of cross section * length
How does a cell's ratio of surface area to volume change as the cell grows larger?
As the cell grows larger the ratio of surface area to volume increases. Larger cell = more volume for the amount surface area.
Surface area and volume of a right prism?
The surface are of a right prism is equal to twice the area of its base plus the perimeter of the base multiplied with the height of the prism. The volume can be determined by multiplying the Area of the base by the height of the prism.
In order to determine the amount of liquid a spherical tank will hold would you need to use volume or surface area?
Volume
