All planets in the solar system have an elliptical orbit to some degree - Venus is the most circular or least elliptical. The imperfection in the circularity of the orbit is simply a reflection of the initial conditions of the planet's formation, if you consider the rotational inertia of the components of the accretion disk from which planets formed, it's almost certain that they will not have precisely the exact amount to form a circular orbit, there would always be a slight irregularity no matter how small.
The reason for the shape of the ellipse reflects this irregularity in terms of the gravitational force between the planet and the sun; laws of physics do the rest. You might say that because gravity's force follows an inverse-square law, the mathematics of a stable orbit are such that an ellipse is consequential. This same observation appears in other guises; Kepler's laws indicate that a line joining the planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times; when a planet is closer to the sun and feels more force it moves faster, further away, it moves more slowly.
Finally, note that the orbits' ellipses themselves also rotate around the sun (apsidal precession), making the actual orbit a complex-looking spiral shape; as if you had slightly rotated the entire ellipse about the focus that the sun occupies with each orbit. Newton made some calculations to explain this motion; Einstein refined this somewhat in general relativity.

A lot?
The moons of the big planets can go into eclipse when they are in the shadow of their planet.
All 8 planets in our solar system rotate around a star, our sun. Virtually all planets rotate around a star.
the smallest planets moon probably because it has the least amount of way to go
moons go around planets and the sun
Planets do not go around the moon.
the planets go around in circles around the sun

=we need planets because if we didn't we couldn't travel the world and no one will be able to go on holiday! But if you would travel the world were would you go if you had no planets=
my inability to go to other planets. and gravity
None, by definition. Moons go around planets.

go away

She didn't go to any planet.
There are eight planets in the solar system, plus five dwarf planets.
