Parallels of latitude are numbered by degrees north or south of the equator. The equator is zero degrees, while the north pole is at 90N and the south pole at 90S.
Depending on the scale of your map or the size of your globe, the printed lines of latitude may be every degree, every 5 degrees or every 15 degrees.

Are parallels numbered 0 to 90 east and west?
No. Parallels of latitude mark angles north and south of the equator.\ if this is a true and false then false
What imaginary lines are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator?
lines of latitude, also known as parallels
Are parallels numbered from 0 to 90 degrees from east and west?
Parallels of north latitude range from 0° at the equator to 90° at the north pole, and parallels of south latitude range from 0° at the equator to 90° at the south pole. Saying that parallels could be numbered from 0 to 90° makes it sound like there are only 91 of them when in fact the distance between the poles can theoretically be subdivided infinitely.
