C Correct answer
Explanation

The Milky Way galaxy has a spiral shape, specifically a barred spiral galaxy. It consists of a central bar-shaped structure with spiral arms extending outward. The disc shape (option A) is partially correct but incomplete - it's specifically a spiral disc, not a flat disc. Circular and irregular are incorrect classifications for the Milky Way.
