Answer:
The Earth does not like a sphere. It has a little bulge in the middle and is slightly flattened at the North and South Poles.
Explanation:
- The earth's shape is generally described as spherical, and children are taught this in order to remember the shape of the earth.
- The poles are slightly flattened, and the planet gently bugles outwards from the equator.
- The sun's gravitational attraction causes the bulging and flattening of the poles.
- The sun's massive gravitational attraction causes the earth's shape to become a little strange, but the earth's gravitational pull prevents it from merging with the sun.
