What is an obiate spheroir?
You probably mean "oblate spheroid," which is the 3D analogue of an ellipse. The earth and other planets, due to the competition between rotational momentum and gravity, is an oblate spheroid. You can model an oblate spheroid by rotating an ellipse around its shorter axis, just as you can model a sphere by the rotation of a circle around any diameter.
