Zero LATITUDE separates the northern and southern hemispheres. Latitude lines circle the globe 'horizontally' and longitude lines all connect at the north and south poles, running vertically. Longitude lines would divide the eastern and western hemispheres. ==Note...== Zero latitude is commonly referred to as the Equator.
yes.........
Yes, it does. That particular line of latitude is called the Equator.
