That is called an "arc".
It comes from the Latin. "Circus" means ring. "Circulus" means "small ring." That got shortened to "circle."
YES. A small circle is simply a circle around the earth that does not fly over the direct opposite place on earth that a plane took off from. A great circle goes full circumference of earth, where a small circle does not. Being a circle they both fly in a constant direction.
-- Draw a circle. -- Put a mark at the center, and draw a line across the whole circle through the center. -- Measure the length of the curved line all around the circle. (called the "circumference" of the circle) -- Measure the length of the straight line across the circle. (called the "diameter" of the circle) If you divide the circumference by the diameter, the result is 'pi'. It doesn't matter how big or how small the circle is. The result is always the same.
small. if this is the diameter, the distance across is slightly more than 1 inch.
A small circle is a simple circle on a two dimensional plane. The great circle is the circle around a sphere that is on the plane that intersects with the center of the sphere. It is the reason that on a flat map the paths of planes seem to curve to go to and from Europe and the North American continent.
If talking in terms of the shortest distance around a sphere, the answer is NO.

The circle around a woman's nipple is called the areola. It is a darker, pigmented area of skin that surrounds the nipple and contains small bumps called Montgomery glands that secrete lubricating fluid during breastfeeding. The size and color of the areola can vary among individuals.

A small "a" in a circle is usually pronounced as "at" or "around." It is commonly used in internet and email addresses, where it indicates being "at" a specific domain.
My daughter has a small red mole on her back that has a white circle around it. Could it be something like cancer?
The small circle of fur underneath the forelock is called the whorl.
A great circle is a circle on the surface of a sphere that has the same center as the sphere, while a small circle does not share the same center as the sphere. Great circles have the largest circumference of all circles on a sphere, whereas small circles have smaller circumferences. The equator is an example of a great circle on Earth, while lines of latitude other than the equator are examples of small circles.
