Imaginary lines that run north to south are known as lines of longitude.
Longitude lines are the imaginary lines running through the Earth between the North and South Poles. They are arbitrary and used for reference so everyone can know where they are in the world.
The lines running north and south are called "meridians" or "lines of longitude."
The imaginary lines that run around the earth in an east-west direction are lines of latitude or parallels.
It's called a latitude (But you asked for the name of the LINE that goes around the Earth like a parallel belt)
Latitude and LongitudeLatitude is the lines that go from east to west, and longitude from north to south.
latitude lines I think
The veritical lines that run across the earth are latitude. The horazontal line that runs across the earth is the equator.
The equator and the lines of longitude.
the equator ========= There are many imaginary lines around the Earth. In fact, there are an infinite number of imaginary lines. The two main types of imaginary lines are parallels of latitude (of which the Equator is one) and meridians of longitude.

On the earth (and planetary/stellar bodies) they are called latitudes and longitudes.
The veritical lines that run across the earth are latitude. The horazontal line that runs across the earth is the equator.
Imaginary lines that circle the earth from east to west are called lines of longitude, or meridians. These lines help define the distance east or west of the prime meridian, which is located in Greenwich, England.
Those are the Latitude lines.
Longitude lines are a set of imaginary lines that goes around the earth over the poles. The Prime Meridian is the longitude line that divides the earth into the eastern and western hemispheres, just as the equator divides the northern and southern hemispheres.
Earth's parallels are called lines of latitude. They are imaginary lines that run parallel to the equator and are used to measure the distance north or south of the equator in degrees.
