Is egg an ellipse?

Hint: First draw a figure of an ellipse then compare with the shape of an egg to obtain the required answer.
Complete step by step solution:
An ellipse is a curved, closed shape but has its sides uniformly tapered, while an oval is also a curved, closed shape with a slightly tapered end on one side.

When we observe an egg closely, the distance from the center is not fixed. So, an egg does not look like an ellipse as it has an asymmetric tapered oval shape.
Hence, an egg is not an ellipse.

Note Students sometimes get confused with the oval shape and elliptical shape and conclude that the egg is an ellipse but that is not true, the egg is not an ellipse.
