Perimeter is a length, not an area or volume...
There are different units for measuring different characteristics: mass, weight, length, area, volume, temperature and so on.
Volume in cubic units = base area times length
Volume in cubic units = cross-section area*length
A square has an area not a volume. Here are some equations for a cube and a square area of a square = length² volume of a cube = length³ Remember that units are very important.

An area is a measure comprising two dimensions of length (usually called length and breadth). The dimensional representation for area is, therefore, [L2]. Similarly, volume which comprises length x breadth x height, is [L3]. The shapes are measured in linear units and so these compound units are squared units (for area) and cubed units (for volume).An area is a measure comprising two dimensions of length (usually called length and breadth).

No, cubic cm is a unit of volume, not area. It represents the volume of a cube with sides that are each one centimeter in length. Area is measured in square units, while volume is measured in cubic units.
Either could be but the conversion from length to area and volume, in terms of units, is simpler. Area = Length2 and Volume = Length3. If Area were the base, then Length = Area0.5 or sqrt(Area) and Volume = Area3/2 - not a convenient relationship. If Volume were the base, then Length = Volume1/3 or cubert(Volume) and Area = Volume2/3 - again not a convenient relationship. Length is required far more often than area or volume in other dirived measures such as speed, acceleration, force, power and so on. So having to calculate roots is making life complicated uncessarily!
That depends what you are measuring. There are lots of different units to measure different things: length, area, volume, weight, mass, force, etc.
Because volume has three dimensions: A line has one dimension: length An area has two dimensions: length and width Volume has three dimensions: length, width and depth.
