no; surface area applies to the square unit of measurement of a 2-dimensional surface, such as one face of a box (length and width). Volume is a 3-dimensional representation that takes the 2-dimensional surface area (length x width) and adds a 3rd dimension in the form of depth, or height. Answers in volume will always be a cubic unit of measure.

Summing it up:

Surface Area: L x W

Cubic Area (Volume): L x W x H

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 is the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere with surface area and volume m?

If they have the same radius then it is: 3 to 2


Do rectangular prisms with the same volume have the same surface area?

No, rectangular prisms with the same volume do not necessarily have the same surface area. The surface area depends on the dimensions of the prism, which can vary even if the volume remains constant. For example, a long, thin prism and a short, wide prism can both have the same volume but different surface areas. Thus, while volume is a fixed quantity, surface area can differ based on the specific dimensions used.


Is the volume of a cylinder the same as the surface area of a cylinder?

no

How does the surface area to volume ratio change as the cell size increases?

It decreases. As the dimensions increase by a number, the surface area increases by the same number to the power of 2, but the volume increases by the same number to the power of 3, meaning that the volume increases faster than the surface area.


Is it possible to have the same surface area different volume?

yes.

As a cell increases in size the volume increases much faster than the surface area. The possible answer is C.
