==Key Stage 3==
===Meaning===
'''Surface area''' is the total [[area]] of a surface if it were stretched into a flat plane.

===About Surface Area===
: The '''surface area''' of different 3d shapes is different even if they have the same [[Volume (Space)|volume]].
: The '''surface area''' of an [[tissue]] affects how quickly it can [[Absorb (Biology)|absorb]] [[chemical]]s.
: The '''surface area''' of a [[solid]] [[reactant]] affects how quickly it can [[Chemical Reaction|react]].

==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
'''Surface area''' is the total [[area]] of a surface if it were stretched into a flat plane.

===About Surface Area===
: The '''surface area''' of different 3d shapes is different even if they have the same [[Volume (Space)|volume]].
: The '''surface area''' of an [[tissue]] affects how quickly it can [[Absorb (Biology)|absorb]] [[chemical]]s.
: The '''surface area''' of a [[solid]] [[reactant]] affects the [[Rate of Reaction|rate of reaction]] as described in [[Collision Theory]].
