What keeps the balloon to hold its shape?

The shape of the balloon is determined by the shape of the deflated rubber and the thickness of the rubber. The neck is usually thicker than the body, thus the body will expand far more than the neck. The pressure exerted upon the air by the balloon's elasticity creates the final inflated shape. If the thickness in the body of the balloon varies, the balloon will not be perfectly round. The thickness of the neck rubber forces the balloon to be more pear-shaped than spherical.
