You don't specify what type of zones you're talking about, but from the context "time zones" seems likely. In that case, the answer is no. Zone boundaries are ROUGHLY based on longitude, but political factors enter the equation as well (it should be obvious that having parts of the same city in different time zones would be awkward).
... different hours when the sun rises, peaks and sets.
Time zones are based off of longitude
The widths all average out the same ... 15 degrees of longitude per time zone. The shapes are drawn the way they are in order to avoid splitting cities and states into two different time zones.
The polar and temperate zones and the tropics.
they are usually in the 60 and 90 degree latitudes but im not sure about longitude
The prime meridian is a line of longitude
