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.
An imaginary line that runs through the planet and its poles is called its axis.
Lines running across the surface would be called latitudes if they're horizontal or longitudes if they're vertical.
It is called the axis. See link for more information.
The Line that passes through the poles and earth's center is its axis.
They are Lines of Longitude and are imaginary lines that run vertically from the North Pole to the South Pole.

Those are the Latitude lines.

The equator is the best known such imaginary line. However, latitudes (including the Arctic Circle) are also imaginary lines encircling the earth as are longitudes.
Such a circle would describe two lines of longitude. The pole intersects the circle in two places forming two separate arcs; each arc is a line of longitude. The plane containing the circle also divides the earth into two hemispheres.
they are : equator,antarctic circle,tropic of cancer,tropic of Capricorn and Arctic circle.
All lines of Latitude circle the earth, they are imaginary devices used on maps. Latitude is horizontal, think of the Horizon.
Both imaginary lines are circles of constant latitude, 23.5 degrees from a pole of the earth's axis.
