'Lines' of latitude remain where they are at and do not run.
Since every point on the same parallel of latitude is at the same north or south
latitude, the only directions left for it to extend in length are east and west.

In which direction does a parellel or line of latitude run?
Latitude lines run from east to west, parallel to the equator. Longitudinal lines are perpendicular to latitude lines and run north to south.
What direction do latitude and longitude lines travel?
Latitude: East-west Longitude: North-south
What way is latitude?
The direction of latitude is horizontal, while longitude is up and down. Lines of latitude run parallel to the equator.
What are the horizontal lines that form circles and run in the same direction as the equator?
lines of latitude are horizontal lines that form circles and that run in the same direction as the equator
What direction does the line latitude run?
If a map or a globe has latitude 'lines' printed on it, they will point east-west.
Which direction do latitude lines measure on a map or globe?
North and South.
Lines of latitude that circle the earth in the same direction as the equator?
Yes. Lines of latitude run east-west. They are a measurement north or south of the equator.
What lines called that run around the earth in an east-west direction?
They are sometimes called "parallels of latitude", or just "latitude lines". The east-west lines on the map measure the latitude in degrees north or south of the equator.
