You have answered the question for yourself ; They are 'Latitudes''.
Longitudes (Meridians) are lines that run North to South from the North Pole to the South Pole. Longitudes come to a point at the poles, but spread out to a maximum at the Equator.
The lines are parallel on the map are called Latitudes.
false
Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator, and that includes the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are also parallel to the equator.See the link below
Lines of latitude are imaginary lines that run parallel to the equator and form part of a grid used to describe where on the earth you are. They are often called parallels.
Parallels and meridians. Circles parallel to the Equator (lines running east and west) are parallels of latitude. They are used to measure degrees of latitude north or south of the Equator. Meridians of longitude are drawn from the North Pole to the South Pole and are at right angles to the Equator.
Lines of Latitude encircle the Earth, running parallel to the Equator.
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
Lines that run parallel to the equator are called latitude lines or parallels.
The lines parallel to the equator are called lines of latitude.
parallels or lines of latitude
On the globe they are called lines of LATITUDE and are parallel to the equator.
Longitudinal or longitude lines are the imaginary lines that are perpendicular to the equator. Latitudinal or latitude lines are parallel to the equator.
lines of latitude
The lines are parallel on the map are called Latitudes.
false
The lines that circle the Earth parallel to the equator are called latitude lines. They are measured in degrees north or south of the equator and help determine location and climate patterns on Earth.
Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator, and that includes the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are also parallel to the equator.See the link below
