Explanation:

Step1: Recall cone properties

A cone has 1 circular base (disc - shaped) and its lateral face is a curved surface which can be thought of as a section of a circle.

Step2: Recall cylinder properties

A cylinder has 2 circular bases (discs) and its lateral face is a curved rectangle when un - rolled.

Step3: Recall prism properties

A prism has 2 congruent and parallel polygons as bases and at least 3 rectangular lateral faces (in the case of a triangular prism).

Step4: Recall pyramid properties

A pyramid has 1 polygon as a base and at least 3 triangular lateral faces (in the case of a triangular pyramid).

Answer:

Cone: 1, curved surface;
Cylinder: 2, curved;
Prism: 2, 3;
Pyramid: 1, 3
