∙ 12y agothe sphere has the smallest surface area for any given volume.
The spherical shape is the smallest surface area for a given volume. This comes about naturally when a surface under pure surface tension contains a fluid volume.
The volume of a body and the surface area arerelated but not in a direct way. For a given volume, the smallest surface area of an object is seen then the object is a sphere. As the shape flattens from a sphere, so the surface area becomes larger. When the object approaches an infinitely small thickness, the surface area approaches and infinite size.
Given a sphere of radius r, Surface area = 4{pi}r2 Volume = (4/3){pi}r3

sphere, as it has the smallest surface area for a given volume. This means it can hold the most material in the smallest space, allowing for efficient packing and maximum density.
A cuboid, of a given volume, has minimum length etc when each of them is equal to the cube root of the volume.
Water has its smallest volume (for any given mass) at 4 degrees Celsius.
Liquid water tends to form spherical droplets due to surface tension, which minimizes the surface area of the water droplet. This results in a spherical shape, as it has the smallest surface area for a given volume of water.
A spherical protist would have a higher surface area to volume ratio compared to a cylindrical protist of the same size. This is because a sphere has the smallest surface area for a given volume, making it more efficient in terms of nutrient exchange and waste removal.
