The outside of the circle is always the same distance from the centre. The outside of an ellipse is not the same distance from the centre all the way round.
Yes; the circle is a special case of an ellipse.

No. A circle is a special kind of ellipse.
"Elliptical" means they look like ellipses.
Johannes Kepler
two circles and an ellipse
A circular ellipse is a specific type of ellipse where the two foci coincide at the center, resulting in all points on the ellipse being equidistant from the center. This geometric shape is essentially a circle, characterized by having a constant radius from the center to any point on the boundary. In mathematical terms, it can be represented with equal semi-major and semi-minor axes. Essentially, while all circles are ellipses, not all ellipses are circles.
As the foci of an ellipse move closer together, the ellipse becomes more circular in shape. When the foci coincide, the shape is a circle. Note that circles are a subset of ellipses.
The path is called an orbit, and it's shaped like an ellipse.
An ellipse, or egg-shaped. Orbits are not very egg-shaped, though . . . they are almost circles.
Ben drew an ellipse as a plane curve with edges not parallel to its axis.
A sphere is three-dimensional whereas an ellipse is two-dimensional. An ellipse can have an oval shape but a cross section of a sphere is always circular.
