An indicator solution that was red was combined with agar, and the solid that formed was then divided into small cylindrical blocks. These blocks were put into an acid that changes the indicator to yellow, while every other variable was kept unchanged. The block dimensions are given below. Block 1: height $3\text{ mm}$, diameter $6\text{ mm}$. Block 2: height $6\text{ mm}$, diameter $12\text{ mm}$. Block 3: height $8\text{ mm}$, diameter $16\text{ mm}$. To calculate the surface area of a cylinder, use $2\pi rh + 2\pi r^2$. To calculate the volume of a cylinder, use $\pi r^2 h$. Which row gives the correct surface area (SA) to volume (V) ratio for each block and the time taken for the block to turn yellow?
