The annual orbit of Earth around the sun is known as a year.
REVOLUTION
A planet or comet's orbit that is farthest from the sun is called the aphelion. This is the point where they are at their greatest distance from the sun in their elliptical orbit.
The orbital far point, or aphelion, is the point in an object's orbit around the sun where it is farthest away from the sun. This is in contrast to the perihelion, which is the point in the orbit where the object is closest to the sun.
the earths orbit because the earths orbit is the size of earth + the size of the moon
Earth's orbit is an ellipse; the Sun is at one of the ellipses focal points. (The other focal point has no astronomical significance.)
The earths orbit around the sun is almost circular.

Yes.
The Earth's journey around the sun is called its orbit.
If the Sun were larger than Earth's orbit, we'd be inside it. Are we inside it? There you go.

It is called an orbit
The Earth's orbit is almost circular. Technically, the "eccentricity" of the orbit is about 0.0167.
Earth's orbital velocity is slowest on July 5 because that is when Earth is at aphelion, its farthest point from the Sun in its elliptical orbit. At this point, the gravitational pull from the Sun is weaker, causing Earth to move more slowly in its orbit.
