Why the earth has got ups and downs on the surface and is not perfectly spherical?

The earth was in liquid state before in cooled down to solid state. The earth should have a spherical shape. But instead you have the ups and downs on the surface of the earth. What is the cause for this anomaly? You can imagine the sequence for this. The earth was in liquid state before in cooled down to solid. The earth was spherical when it cooled down at the first instance. Still the temperature was high and more than 1000 degree Celsius. So water could not got settled on the surface of the earth. Then the earth got cooled down to less than 100 degree Celsius. Then the water started settling on the surface of the earth. Then you had water covering all over the earth. This water started to percolate inside the earth. Once this water went down deeper and deeper, it got hotter and hotter. It tried to get converted into steam, but prevented by the pressure of the crust. So the temperature of the water raised to thousands of degree Celsius. This phenomena created the raise in pressure inside the crust of the earth. Ultimately the crust of the earth gave away and volcanoes got erupted. This created small ups and downs in the beginning. The vicious cycle started to give more and bigger ups and downs. So you have the earth as you see as you see it today. So according to this theory it is the water, which is responsible for the shape of the earth, as you see today.

Scientists are able to deduce the Earth's shape based upon its?

atmosphererotation propertiesAristotle a philosopher and scientist was the first to deduce that the Earth's shape was round. He gave 3 reasons why.(1) Matter is drawn to the center of the Earth by gravity.(2) As you move from north to south, new constellations are seen rising above the southern horizon.(3) During an eclipse, the Earth's shadow on the Moon is always round. The only object whose shadow is always circular, no matter what its orientation, is a sphere.

How did the Greeks figure out the size and shape of the earth nearly 2000 years before Columbus?

They did it with clear and brilliant thinking, and by applying concepts from astronomy and geometry. They figured out how to do some triangulations that gave them basic measurements from which to estimate earth's over-all dimensions.
