make it spherical
It is not always the case. If you are out in the cold with insufficient clothing, the important thing - to prevent hypothermia - is to MINIMISE the surface to volume ratio.
In the case of a rectangle, you would maximize the area given the perimeter by making the dimensions equal. In other words, you would make the rectangle into a square. However, to truly maximize the area, you would make the perimeter a perfect circle.
It is the surface area of the two ends plus the surface area of the curved surface. Surface area of each end is pir2 Surface area of the curved surface is 2pirh Total surface area = 2pir2 + 2pirh
2(l*w)+2(l*h)+2(w*h) * * * * * That is only true for a cuboid. Other bodies also have surface areas and there are lots of formulae dealing with them.

To maximize the surface area/volume ratio.
maximize surface area and minimize volume
Yes. There are ways to do that, but it depends on what you wish to change the surface area of. Changing the surface area of something like, say, a shotput is difficult, but changing the surface area of a balloon can be accomplished by merely blowing it up (more) or deflating it.

The stroma is an area inside the chloroplast with a thylakoid stack. The stacks are connected by the stroma lamellae and maximize the efficiency of the chloroplasts.
You can minimise friction by Decreasing surface area, making area smoother, lubricating it(eg. car parts) and the opposite to maximise friction.
The wrinkles of the small intestine increase its surface area. Increased surface area gives more opportunities for absorption of nutrients, which is one of the main functions of the small intestine.
This is because they need to fit in anything!
In the real life sense no, but if you make our bodies the same size our lungs would be relatively the same size.
