		In geometry, two objects are of the same shape if one can be transformed to another (ignoring color) by dilating (that is, by multiplying all distances by the same factor) and then, if necessary, rotating and translating.
		Objects which are geometrically similar either have the same shape or one has the same shape as the other's mirror image (or both if they are themselves symmetric).
		The shape of an object can be characterized by basic geometry such as points, line, curves, plane, and so on.

		Nations with low infant mortality and high longevity will display a more rectangular shape as a majority of the population living to old age.
		The converse will have a more pyramidal shape with a wide base, reflecting higher infant mortality and greater risk of early death.
		In biology, a rarely occurring situation in which a group of individuals of a species appear in a new, inhabitable area suitable for more individuals, and begin to populate it.
