Malleable, I think.
Shaped or molded
Yes, wax is malleable as it can be easily shaped and molded when it is warm. It hardens when it cools down, retaining the shape it was molded into.
Thermoplastics are synthetic polymers that can be molded and shaped through the application of heat. Examples include polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene. These materials can be melted and reshaped multiple times, making them versatile for various applications.
Because they are differently shaped, molded to help them survive in their habitats.
The prefix "plast-" refers to something that is capable of being shaped or molded. It is derived from the Greek word "plastos," which means molded.

Metals such as gold, silver, and iron are commonly malleable, meaning they can be easily shaped or molded into different forms without breaking.
A plastic which will soften when heated and harden when cooled.
The word that fits the description is "ductile." Ductile refers to a material's ability to be easily shaped or molded without breaking.
Some synonyms of the word 'shaped' are "determined, molded, influenced, regulated, formed, moulded and forged. It can mean to cause, do or make something.
Thermoplastics is molded by first subjecting them to heat which makes them melt. In their molten state, they can then be molded to make the products of choice.
