A sphere does not<\/strong> have a uniform cross-section. If you slice a sphere at different levels (not through the center), the resulting cross-sections are circles<\/strong> of different sizes<\/strong>. Only a cut through the center gives the largest circle (a great circle), but other cuts give smaller circles. Hence, the cross-sections are not uniform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
A cylinder does<\/em> have a uniform cross-section<\/strong>. If you slice a cylinder perpendicular to its height (along the length of the tube), every cross-section is a circle of the same size<\/strong>. Whether you cut it at the top, middle, or bottom, the shape and size remain consistent. This makes the cylinder a shape with a uniform cross-section<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A pyramid does not<\/strong> have a uniform cross-section. If you slice it parallel to its base but at different heights, you will get smaller and smaller versions<\/strong> of the base. For example, a square pyramid sliced higher up yields a smaller square. So, the cross-sections are not<\/strong> uniform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
A cone also does not<\/strong> have a uniform cross-section. Similar to a pyramid, slicing a cone parallel to its base results in circular cross-sections<\/strong> of different sizes<\/strong>, getting smaller as you go toward the tip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
