Answer:

Only the surface area will increase, volume will stay same.

Step-by-step explanation:

You will observe when an orange is cut in to two, each half will have one more plane surface than the orange had before it was cut. So surface area will definitely increase.

Now consider a water bottle. Cut it in to two from center and check whether you can put more water in the bottle than it was in one piece.Surely you will not, that is because the volume is not changed as a solid is being cut.

Therefore,

Only the surface area will increase, volume will stay same.
