What two things do lines of longitude and landitude run?
Lines of latitude run round the earth parallel to the Equator. Lines of longitude run from pole to pole, crossing the Equator at 90 degrees.
What lines of a map run from north pole to the south pole?
lines of equal longitude, a.k.a. meridians
What is a longitude lines?
Lines of Longitude are imaginary lines that run from the North Pole to the South Pole. The main line of longitude, the Prime Meridian (zero longitude), passes through the Greenwich Observatory, London, England.
