The term that refers to the general body shape of an animal is "morphology." Morphology encompasses the study of the form and structure of organisms, including their shapes, sizes, and arrangements of body parts. In zoology, this can include various characteristics such as body plan, symmetry, and skeletal structure, which help categorize and understand different species.
