Answer:

D

Explanation:

The lateral surface area is the area of all the sides of a 3-dimensional object excluding its base and top.

The total surface area of a room would be the walls of the room. this is because the roof and the floor would be excluded

The wrapper of an ice-cream cone excludes the base and the top. Thus it is an example of the lateral surface area

The air in a basketball can qualify as the volume of the basketball (a sphere)
