No planet's orbit is a perfect circle. They are all ellipses.
A circle is an ellipse, so it's elliptical either way.However, the orbit of Mars is not a perfect circle.
ellipses
0.523 AU apart. On average. Neither the earth's orbit, or particularly Mars' orbit are perfect circles. So "closest approach" is rarely this distance.
Mars's orbit is more elliptical than all the eight major planets except Mercury. This enabled Kepler to discover that the orbit was elliptical and not as previously thought a circle with the Sun offset from the centre (represented by a circle and an epicycle with the centre of the epicycle travelling round the circle, and the planet positioned on the epicycle).
No planets orbit around Mars. There are two moons that orbit around Mars.

ellipses
Mars has the most elliptical orbit. The earth's is almost a perfect circle
Kepler discovered that the orbit of each planet is an ellipse rather than a perfect circle. The planet with an orbit that is closest to a circle is Venus.
No.
It's an orbit that is not a perfect circle, it has some elongation to it.
Kelper determined that the orbit of Mars orbit is not a circle but an ellipse.
there is no diameter for a diameter must have a full circle, and Mars has an elliptical orbit.
0.523 AU apart. On average. Neither the earth's orbit, or particularly Mars' orbit are perfect circles. So "closest approach" is rarely this distance.
its orbit is not perfect circle, but is most eccentric of all planets,having eccentricity of 0.21 eccentricity means,the amount by which its orbit varies from perfect circle. 0 means circle and 1 means parabola. so mercury's eccentricity(0.21) is between circle and parabola, in fact, more closer to circle

Jupiter does not orbit the sun in a perfect circle
