The lines on a globe that run north and south are called lines of longitude, or meridians. They measure distance east or west from the arbitrary Prime Meridian or Greenwich Meridian, established as 0° longitude.
The lines that run north and south on a globe are called meridians of longitude. They converge at the poles, with the Prime Meridian (0 degrees) serving as the reference point for measuring east and west.
Intersecting lines drawn on a globe are typically latitude and longitude lines. Latitude lines run east-west and measure degrees north or south of the equator. Longitude lines run north-south and measure degrees east or west of the Prime Meridian. Their intersections pinpoint specific locations on Earth and are used for navigation and mapping.
Lines of latitude run east-west around the Earth and are parallel to the equator. The equator is at 0° latitude, with lines increasing to 90°N at the North Pole and 90°S at the South Pole. Lines of longitude run from the North Pole to the South Pole and are used to measure east-west distance. The Prime Meridian is at 0° longitude and runs through Greenwich, England.
Meridians of longitude run north and south. Parallels of latitude run east and west.
Roads that run north to south are typically referred to as "north-south roads" or "vertical roads."
Latitude lines run east-west around the Earth.
The lines that run north and south "or long ways" are longitude lines. East and west are latitude lines.
If you mean the longitude lines, as seen on a globe, they meet at the North Pole and at the South Pole.
The key lines are latitude and longitude. These are based on specific points. The equator is the latitude around the center of the earth. Longitude is measured from the Prime Meridian, which goes through the Greenwich Observatory in England.The Tropics and the Arctic/Antarctic Circle are also key.
Imanginary lines that run north and south of the globe. This line shows distance in degrees from the prime meridan.
In general, longitudinal lines run in the direction of the length (longer dimension) of a thing. On a globe or map representing Earth or another celestial object, longitudinal lines run north-south, from pole to pole. Because they meet at two points, they are neither parallel nor equidistant.
Lines of longitude run north-south and measure east-west.
They are the lines of latitude, and they are also called parallels.
The longitudinal lines run north-south across the globe, splitting Earth up into the eastern and western hemispheres.
Yes. Horizontal lines of latitude that run across the globe are known as parallels or latitude.
The lines that run north and south are called meridians of longitude. (The north and south poles are the ends of every meridian, so each one only goes half-way around the globe.)
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that run East to West but measure North to South on the Globe. I remember latitude is fatitude. Longitude lines go North to South but measure East to West. I remember it as LONGitude.
Those would be the 'parallels' of constant latitude.
