... whereas one of the "bases" of prisms are vertices.
Prisms have polygons as bases whereas cylinders have circles as bases. In a way, a cylinder is like a circular prism.
Cylinders are circles pulled out into the third dimension and rectangular prisms are rectangles pulled into the third dimension.
Cylinders and cuboids are types of prisms.
Prisms have polygonal cross sections and several rectangular lateral faces. Cylinders have circular cross sections and one curved lateral face.

Cylinders are circles pulled out into the third dimension and rectangular prisms are rectangles pulled into the third dimension.
Cylinders and cuboids are types of prisms.
Prisms have polygonal cross sections and several rectangular lateral faces. Cylinders have circular cross sections and one curved lateral face.
cones are similar to pyramids because they come to a point, also known as the vertex. Cones and pyramids are also conic. Cylinders are similar to prisms because their base, no matter what shape, will translate (slide) all the way up the middle to the top. Basically, their 2 bases should always always always be congruent. Prisms and cylinders are also cylindric.
Spheres, cylinders and sometimes prisms
Prisms have two parallel and congruent bases connected by rectangular lateral faces, while cylinders have two circular bases connected by a curved lateral surface. Prisms have flat sides and edges, while cylinders have a curved surface.
There is prisms and pyramids. There are also spheres and cylinders
Pyramids and cones have a pointed top (apex) while prisms and cylinders have flat tops. Pyramids and cones have a single base, while prisms have two parallel bases. Cones have a curved surface while pyramids have triangular faces.
The bases of cylinders are circular whereas the bases of prisms are polygons.
