What is an example of a raised flat area?
a surface that does not move
How does surface area work?
It would help if the question was less obscure. What do you mean by "work"? How the surface area affects chemical processes (for example the surface area of catalysts), or diffusion, or surface areas and friction?
In what way is the surface area more important for cells than volume?
For example, the amount of nutrients a cell can absorb are proportional to its surface area.
How do you find the surface area of a 3d object?
It depends, but in let's look at a simple example to help you see how. How would you find the surface area of a cube. Find the surface area of one of the faces and since there are six of those, multiply it by 6. For example, a 2x2x2 cube. Each face has a surface area of 4 and there are 6 of them so the total surface area is 24 units. We do the same thing with other 3d objects, but it may be harder to find the surface area of faces. In face, sometimes there are no faces and we may need calculus to find the surface area.
How surface area affects heat loss?
Increasing the Surface Area increases the heat loss. You will find a nice example in the related question link below.
What is a real world example of surface area?
A practical need to calculate surface area arises, for example, when you need to paint your house. The amount of paint you need is proportional to the surface area you want to paint.

What are example of surface area and volume in real life?
Solid objects exist in real life. Each one of them has a surface area as well as a volume.
Where did surface area come from?
Surface area was not invented as its a natural phenomena. However, surface area can be derived mathematically from calculating how much of an object, molecule, and so on are exposed. The contact surface of a flat square of 1-centimeter sides would have a surface area of 1-square cm for example. Understanding the implications of surface area is critical to scientific and engineering disciplines.
What can change the surface area to volume ratio?
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.

Does planets with the greatest mass have the greatest surface area?
No, the mass of a planet is not directly related to its surface area. Surface area is determined by the size and shape of the planet, not just its mass. For example, Earth has a smaller mass than Jupiter, but a larger surface area due to its size and composition.
What happens to a cell's ratio of surface area to volume as the volume increases more rapidly than its surface area?
As volume increases surface area increase, but the higher the volume the less surface area in the ratio. For example. A cube 1mmx1mmx1mm has volume of 1mm3 surface area of 6mm2 which is a ration of 1:6 and a cube of 2mmx2mmx2mm has a volume of 8mm3 and surface area of 24mm2 which is a ratio of 1:3.

What is the surface area of a rectangle prism?
it is when you for example==== surface area = 2(6)(4) + 2(6)(3) + 2(4)(3) = 108 in. square surface area of a solid is the sum of the areas of the outside surfaces of a solid
