Lines of Latitude
Which direction do parallel lines run on a globe?
they go up and down
In which diection does a parallel or line of lalitude run?
Latitude lines are the imaginary lines on a globe that are horizontal.
In which direction does line of latitude run?
Latitudinal lines run East West along the earth's surface. An easy trick to remember is thinking "lat is flat" therefore the lines are flat when you are looking at a globe or 2D map.Latitude lines can also be called "PARALLELS"

Yes. Horizontal lines of latitude that run across the globe are known as parallels or latitude.
Lines running parallel to the equator are called?
You have answered the question for yourself ; They are 'Latitudes''. Longitudes (Meridians) are lines that run North to South from the North Pole to the South Pole. Longitudes come to a point at the poles, but spread out to a maximum at the Equator.
What are lines that run parallel from the equator called?
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
Are the parallel lines on a globe called longitude or latitude lines?
Latitude.
What are lines that are parallel and run?
parallel lines. they run side by side but never intersect
What do we call the parallel lines that circle the globe?
Cdm
Do the longitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator?
No. Longitudinal lines run parallel to the Prime Meridian. Latitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator.
The intersecting parallel meridian lines in a globe or map?
Meridians are not parallel. Apart from that, what is the question?
