Correct answer: Ellipse

Earth orbits the Sun in an elliptical path, not a perfect circle. This means its distance from the Sun varies throughout the year, being closest at perihelion (around January) and furthest at aphelion (around July). This elliptical orbit, combined with the Earth's axial tilt, is crucial for our planet's seasons. Photo: Tauʻolunga, Wikimedia Commons, CC0.
