2. Shape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape

   A geometric shape consists of the geometric information which remains when location, scale, orientation and reflection are removed from the description of a geometric object. [1] That is, the result of moving a shape around, enlarging it, rotating it, or reflecting it in a mirror is the same shape as the original, and not a distinct shape.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_and_form_(visual_arts)

   A form is an artist's way of using elements of art, principles of design, and media. Form, as an element of art, is three-dimensional and encloses space. Like a shape, a form has length and width, but it also has depth. Forms are either geometric or free-form, and can be symmetrical or asymmetrical.

   Many shapes have metaphorical names, i.e., their names are metaphors: these shapes are named after a most common object that has it. For example, "U-shape" is a shape that resembles the letter U , a bell-shaped curve has the shape of the vertical cross section of a bell , etc.

   Animals mainly have bilateral or mirror symmetry, as do the leaves of plants and some flowers such as orchids. [30] Plants often have radial or rotational symmetry, as do many flowers and some groups of animals such as sea anemones. Fivefold symmetry is found in the echinoderms, the group that includes starfish, sea urchins, and sea lilies. [31]
