I think you're trying to give the definition of a planet.
The two measurements you give are not related, essentially. The MM measurement could be the diameter of a brilliant cut diamond, or one measurement of another shape. The carat weight you give is a weight measurement of gemstones.
Some people believe tilting an uterus after sex will give with the egg a better chance at being implanted. Even some OB will recommend this for partners trying to conceive.
A gore on a hot air balloon is a section of lightweight fabric that makes one of the panels of the balloon. The gores are cut from flat material and stitched together to give the balloon its shape.
Good air-mass source regions are dominated by high pressure where subsidence forces air towards the surface. These high pressures also enable air to move outward from the source region.
The rectangular shape avoids the curvature of light where as the spherical shape will bend it and give an inaccurate reading of absorption.
The round (spherical) shape of a planet comes about through the force of gravity, not through wind, but the rotation does have an effect on its shape. Mass is related to gravity, the more massive an object is the bigger the force of gravity at its surface. If an object is around 700-1000km in diameter (roughly) then it will have enough gravity for it to shape itself into a ball shape, overcoming the internal forces that would otherwise give it an irregular shape. A object (like a moon, dwarf planet or planet) has to be large enough and massive enough to 'pull' itself into a spherical shape. The spin of the object may cause the spherical shape to become squashed, if it is fast enough, as the centripetal forces at the equator will stretch it out somewhat.
the surface tension of water is responsible for spherical shape of a drop.
If the forces acting on an object are perfectly balanced, the resulting net force is equal to zero.
The earth's shape (almost spherical) has absolutely no influence on the seasons, which are associated with the inclination of its axis relative to its orbital plane.
This is an outstanding question. On the atomic and molecular scale rotation tends to determine the spherical shape. Molecules do tend to organize in a spherical manner on a large scale as rain drops. However, should the raindrop grow too large as it falls neck instability tends to give it a barbell shape in which it will break into more than one sphere. But besides rotation for planets they tend to "organize" around a center of mass and gravitational forces are at work here. I welcome additional comments on this subject.

the shape of the earth is not flat. it has a spherical shape. its slightly flattened at the poles to give a nearly spherical shape hence; the earth's shape is better described as a geoid which means the earth's shape
The reason behind the spherical design is due to extremely high pressures in deep-sea levels. A spherical design forces the water to press down on an equally shaped surface with no dents or flat surfaces to give the pressures a "foothold" in crushing the submersible.
Too small. (To be even a dwarf planet you must have sufficient mass to give yourself a spherical shape.)
As we all know, apples have a rather spherical shape (give or take a few curves). The fact of the matter is that it has been proven that foods with a more circular shape agree with your digestive system. Yes, that's right, Easter is coming upon, so be guilt free next time you eat an easter egg, due to its' spherical shape. No calories involved. In fact, no matter the food, its' shape will improve your health. I suggest molding all of your foods into a spherical shape, and watch your health improve dramatically.
because they do so
