lines of latitude, also known as parallels
What is also known as parallels?
Parallels are also called lines of constant latitude, on maps and globes.
What lines connect the North and South pole?
Longitude, longitudinal As opposed to latitude (horizontal lines circling the earth.
Imaginary lines which circle the earth from east to west are lines of which are also called?
They are called Lines of Latitude or parallels.
What are the lines of latitude or the parallels of latitude?
Lines of latitude are lines of latitude, also known as parallels. There are 90 separations by 1 degree between the equator and either pole. Only some of them are named : Equator - 0° latitude Tropic of Cancer - 23.5° N Tropic of Capricorn - 23.5° S Arctic Circle - 66.5° N Antarctic Circle - 66.5° S

What is a series of crisscrossing lines on a map identified by letters and numbers?
It is called a grid system (or map coordinates), and is used to identify locations on the map. It is made of latitude and longitude lines. The latitude lines are also called parallels and they run west to east. Longitude lines, also known as meridians, run north to south.
Calm regions known as the horse latitudes oar centered on 2 named lines of latitude What is the name of these 2 lines of latitude?
Horse latitudes are also known as subtropical highs. They are latitudes that lie between 30 and 35 degrees north, as well as south.
What is another way to say latitude?
Lines of latitude are also called parallels.
What is Lines that's run east and west measure how far north or south of the equator you are?
They are Lines of Latitude (sometimes known as Parallels of Latitude). The Equator (zero latitude) horizontally encircles the Earth and separates the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. Moving northwards from the Equator, the lines of Latitude increase in degrees. Moving South from the Equator, the lines of Latitude also increase in degrees the same as for the northern direction. The latitude of the North Pole is 90 degrees North, and the latitude of the South Pole is 90 degrees South.
What are Imaginary lines which run at right angles to the equator?
They are lines of constant latitude, all parallel to the equator.
What are two names for the lines that run east to west on a globe?
They are the lines of latitude, and they are also called parallels.
What else are latitude lines called?
Lines of latitude are also called parallels because they are all parallel to each other. Any two lines of latitude you choose are the same distance apart everywhere, and no two lines of latitude ever cross. Latitude 36 degrees north is called the 36th parallel north
