The earths orbit around the sun is almost circular.

Earth's orbit (revolution) around the Sun is not circular - it's an ellipse. However, this ellipse is fairly close to a circle.
The only orbitals that are very close to circular are those around a system with two stars. All other orbitals have an oval or elliptical shape
The Earth's orbit is almost circular. Technically, the "eccentricity" of the orbit is about 0.0167.

Not much would change. Note that the seasons are NOT related to changes in the distance from the Sun.
Yes, earth's orbit is slightly elliptical. Venus's orbit varies only slightly from a perfect circle, while dwarf planet Pluto has the most highly eccentric orbit. In general, all planets orbit around the Sun in an elliptical orbit. This was first discovered by Johannes Kepler and was described by his three laws of planetary motion.
orbit
Because it is pulled in by the earths gravity and therefore orbits the earth.
elliptical.
because of the earths gravitational pull
The Earth's journey around the sun is called an Elliptical Orbit.One Earth orbit around the sun equals one year.
