There is only a tropical climate as opposed to a temperate, moderate, highland, or continental climate in the middle latitudes.
Is the areas between the tropic of cancer and tropic of Capricorn called low or high latitudes?
Both! All lines of latitude between the equator and the tropic of cancer are high latitudes, and lines of latitude between the equator and the tropic of capricorn are considered low latitudes. ***THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE TROPICAL LATITUDES*** <- those I can't name
Which degrees mark the northern latitudes?
Northern latitudes are the latitudes between zero and 90° North ... that is, everything between the equator and the north pole, the region referred to as the "northern Hemisphere".
Why there are 181 parallels latitudes?
This is because there are 90 latitudes above the equator, 90 latitudes below the equator and one is the equator itself.....so when we add them up (including the equator) we get 181.

How many miles are meridians spaced?
Meridians are not evenly spaced. They are closer together at extreme latitudes, and farther apart near the equator. Near the equator, each minute of longitude is approximately one nautical mile (6076 feet). At other latitudes, the number of nautical miles between minutes of longitude is approximately the cosine of the latitude.
How many latitudes are there in total?
there are 181 latitudes.90 latitudes above equator+90 latitudes below the equator +equator.90+90+1=181

What lines mark the tropics or low latitudes?
The 'low' latitudes can be considered as any below the equator. The 'Tropics' are any latitudes between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.
Why equator is ideal basis for all latitudes?
Because its the foundation for the all latitudes and all latitudes start to originate up and down from the equator.
Where is the temperate climate zone?
The climate zone known as temperate is located between the equator and the North and South poles.
