A prism has 3 flat faces while a convex lens has two curved faces. However the edge of a convex lense has a similar geometry to two adjacent faces of a prism.
In a convex lens, the middle is thicker than the outer rim. In a concave lens, the outside rim is thicker.
A convex lens has a center that is thicker than its edges. This type of lens causes light rays passing through it to converge, focusing them to a point known as the focal point.
A lens that is thicker in the middle than at the edges is called a convex lens. This type of lens converges light rays to a focal point, making it useful in applications such as magnifying glasses and camera lenses. It causes light rays passing through it to converge towards a point.
A lens that is thicker in the middle than at the edges is called a convex lens. It is a converging lens that causes light rays to converge at a focal point.
No, a convex lens cannot behave as a concave lens because they have different shapes and properties. A convex lens converges light rays to a focal point, while a concave lens diverges light rays. They produce different effects on the light passing through them and have opposite characteristics.

Concave is thinner in the center than the edges and convex lens is thicker in the center than on the edges :)
A convex lens acts as concave lens when it is kept in a medium whose optical density is higher than the lens itself. And the vice-verse is also true .i.e, a concave lens can act as convex lens too .

A concave lens is a lens in which the ends are thicker than the middle, rather shaped like this ---> )( A convex lens is a lens in which the ends are thinner than the middle, shaped like the following ---> ()

The convex lens are the converging lens. The periphery of the convex lens is thinner & the center part is thicker. In other words, the convex lens are bulging at the center & thinner at the periphery.
Actually, a lens that is thinner in the middle than the edges is a convex lens, not a concave lens. Concave lenses are thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges, while convex lenses bulge out in the middle.
