The net of the fish tank with no lid has four rectangular faces, two pairs of congruent rectangles, and the net of the fish tank with its lid has six rectangular faces, three pairs of congruent rectangles.
The net of the fish tank with no lid has four rectangular faces, two pairs of congruent rectangles, and the net of the fish tank with its lid has six rectangular faces, three pairs of congruent rectangles.

Both the nets are identical.

To compare the nets of a fish tank with no lid and a fish tank with a lid, we need to consider the number of rectangular faces each net has.

  1. Fish Tank with No Lid: A fish tank that does not have a lid typically consists of five rectangular faces: the bottom rectangle and four side rectangles. In this case, we can have two pairs of congruent rectangles (the opposite side rectangles being congruent).

  2. Fish Tank with Lid: A fish tank that includes a lid has six rectangular faces: the bottom rectangle, four side rectangles, and one top rectangle (the lid). Similar to the first case, this configuration generally includes three pairs of congruent rectangles (the opposite sides and top being congruent).

From this analysis, the correct comparison is that:

  • The fish tank with a lid has six rectangular faces, with three pairs of congruent rectangles.
  • The fish tank without a lid has five rectangular faces, with two pairs of congruent rectangles.

Therefore, the best response from the options provided would be:

"The net of the fish tank with a lid comprises six rectangles, three pairs of congruent rectangles, whereas the net of the fish tank with no lid comprises five rectangles, two pairs of congruent rectangles."
