Lines of Latitude
i believe a meridian are the imaginary lines going around the globe, for example, the Equator. Parallels are the imaginary lines going around the globe from the north to the south poles
Latitude lines are the imaginary lines on a globe that are horizontal.
Lines of longitude.

Parallel refers to the longitude where you live. Longitudes are the imaginary lines ruled around the globe by map makers starting at the equator, zero longitude, to 90 degrees at the poles. The 60th parallel refers to 60 degrees from the equator and passes through Europe and all points on that level around the globe.

The imaginary lines on the globe helps because it divides the Northern Hemisphere from Southern Hemisphere. Therefore, imaginary lines are helpful.
Yes. Horizontal lines of latitude that run across the globe are known as parallels or latitude.
