Technically you can not trace a sphere. If the base conditions are the same as for the other solid shapes, for example a cylinder, there is a base on which the cylinder rests, which creates the circle when it is traced. A sphere on a base would be touching in one point, which would be a dot.

If you trace half a sphere, yes, than you do get a circle.

What is an order of a shape?

Think of a shape being made of putty. You are allowed to flatten it or make corners but you cannot create or remove any holes. In this context, a sphere and a cube are the same - you can make a sphere into a cube by flattening some faces. But a sphere cannot be re-moulded into a torus (doughnut). This is topology and the order of a shape is the number of "holes" in it.
