उत्तर

Orange

Explanation:

The Earth is not a perfect sphere but an oblate spheroid, meaning it is slightly flattened at the poles and bulged at the equator, resembling the shape of an orange more than other fruits. This shape is called a “geoid” due to gravitational effects causing this flattening.
