No. Believe the accepted is Zero(0). Hence the North Pole is at +90, and the South Pole is at -90. Or 90N and 90S. Latitude Lines are accepted to be measured in Degrees/minutes.
Therefore if a radius "line" at the Equator is "lifted" 1.0 degree in a Northerly direction, the point of the line at the circumference at 1.0 degree North. If one were to draw a line from that point around the entire perfect sphere(which the Earth is not), then a line of Latitude could be referenced as 1.0 Degree North Latitude.

∙ 11y agoThe direct answer to the question is: No, both of those choices are incorrect.
The equator is defined as zero latitude, and there is a point on it at every possible longitude.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoYes, the Equator is perpendicular to all lines of longitude at the equator
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoThe Equator is located at 0 latitude. It runs all the way around the Earth, so you could say that it is at longitude 0 through to 350, but really the Equator has nothing to do with longitude.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoThe Prime Meridian is at zero degrees longitude.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe equator is defined as the origin of latitude, i.e. zero degrees north/south. It passes through every longitude.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoIt is the meridian of 180° longitude, both east and west.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoThe equator is located at zero latitude, and there is
a point on it at every possible longitude.

What is the name of the parallel that is located at 0 degrees longitude?
All parallels, or latitudes, cross 0 degrees longitude. 0 degrees longitude is the prime meridian. 0 degrees latitude, or parallel, is the equator
What is an imaginary line running halfway between the north pole and south pole this line is located at 0 degrees longitude?
The imaginary line at zero degrees longitude is the Prime Meridian. The imaginary line halfway between the poles is the Equator. The Equator is zero degrees latitude.
What is the line of latitude at 0 degrees around the middle of the globe called?
The line of latitude at 0 degrees is the equator. 0 degrees= middle both ways.To remember longitude from latitude and latitude from longitude remember this:longitude: LONG... up and down... North and Southlatitude: lat.. flat... side to side... East and West
Is latitude the vertical line or horizontal?
Lines of latitude run east-west as circles parallel (or horizontal lines) to the equator. Latitude measures the angle in degrees north or south from the equator where the equator is located at 0 degrees.
How many degrees south is the equator in south latitude?
The Equator is at 0 degrees latitude. The South Pole is at the centre of the Southern Hemisphere. The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. Every line of latitude between 0 and 90 S are in the Southern Hemisphere.
Is the equator located at 0 longitude 0 latitude 180 longitude?
latitude 0 degrees.
What lines are located at 0 degrees latitude and longitude?
The Equator is 0 degrees latitude, and the Prime (or Grenwich) Meridian is 0 degrees longitude.
What is the name of the parallel that is located at 0 degrees longitude?
All parallels, or latitudes, cross 0 degrees longitude. 0 degrees longitude is the prime meridian. 0 degrees latitude, or parallel, is the equator
The equator is located zero degrees longitude or latitude?
The equator is located at 0 degrees latitude. The angle of latitude starts at 0 at the equator and ends with +90 and -90 degrees at the North and South poles, respectively. Lines of latitude are parallel to each other.
Is the equator located at o longitude o latitude or 180 longitude?
The equator is 0° latitude.
Name the line located at 00 latitude?
The Equator. 0 degrees Longitude is the Greenwich Meridian.
The name given to 0 degrees latitude?
The 0 degrees latitude line is called the equator.
The equator is located at what longitude?
There is a point on the equator at everylongitude.All of them have zero latitude.
What city is located at 60 degrees N latitude and 5 degrees longitude?
No major city is located at exactly 60 degrees N latitude and 5 degrees longitude. This location is out in the ocean, between Iceland and the United Kingdom.
Where is 0 degrees and 0 degrees located?
The Equator (0 degrees latitude) crosses the Prime Meridian (0 degrees longitude) off the coast of Gabon, Africa.
Is the equator located at 0 longitude 0 latitude or 180 longitude?
The equator is located at 0 latitude. Fullstop. Being a parallel it spans the whole range in longitude, from 0 to 180 and back again.
What is an imaginary line running halfway between the north pole and south pole this line is located at 0 degrees longitude?
The imaginary line at zero degrees longitude is the Prime Meridian. The imaginary line halfway between the poles is the Equator. The Equator is zero degrees latitude.
