The earth's axis is not straight up and down but tilted at an angle 23.5 degrees. So the shape called oblate spheroid.

Earth's circumference and diameter differ because its shape is classified as an oblate spheroid or ellipsoid, instead of a true sphere.

The diameter of earth at the equator is more than the diameter between the poles.

The question says: "The shape of the earth is...". I think SPHERE is the correct answer because we're not told the position. I believe that Earth is Spherical NATURALLY.
