The Latitude is the line
The horizontal line that goes around the "waist" of the Earth is the Equator. The vertical line that goes vertically around the Earth, through the poles, is the Prime Meridian.

The circumference is the distance around the Earth at it's widest point. The diameter goes through the center of the Earth from one side to the other.

nothing much
when the moon goes straight through the center of the Earth's shadow, or at least close enough to the center that there is some time when the moon is completely in it
If a chord goes thru the center of a circle, it is the diameter
A chord that passes through the center of a circle is its diameter.
The theory that the Sun revolved around the Earth (i.e. that the Earth is the center) is called Geocentricity. The theory that the Earth revolves around the Sun (i.e. that the Sun is the center) is called Heliocentricity.
It means that is where all the gravity goes
Seismic waves that can pass through the centre of the Earth must be capable of travelling through liquids (as the outer core is molten). As such we know that these waves are longitudinal or compression waves.
