The vertical equator is the Prime Meridian.

The zero line of longitude is the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian runs from pole to pole, passing through the Greenwich Observatory, England.
The 0 degree line of Latitude is called the Equator.
It's the equator - a line of zero degrees latitude going all the way round the earth.
Nothing is parallel to any meridian. The equator is a parallel of latitude, and is parallel to all the other parallels. This is a big part of the reason that, collectively, they are called 'parallels'.
It is a meridian.
differences between equator and prime meridian
The 0 degrees latitude line is called the equator.
It's called the intersection of the Equator and the Prime Meridian, at a point in theGulf of Guinea, south of Accra, Ghana, and west of Libreville, Gabon. If it has anyspecial name, we're not aware of it.
