Lines of latitude . . .
-- are imaginary
-- are invisible
-- are invented by humans.
-- They are all parallel to each other.
-- Each line is composed of every point on Earth that has the same latitude.
-- Each line goes completely around the Earth.
-- The lines are labeled according to the latitude that each represents. The line
that represents zero latitude is the equator.
-- Since the Earth's surface is spherical, latitude is an angle. It ranges from zero at
the equator to 90 degrees at the north and south poles.
-- The length of any line of latitude depends on which latitude it represents, being approximately
(40,075 kilometers / 24,900 miles) times (cosine of the latitude) .
-- There is no set number of 'lines'. Different maps and globes display different
numbers of lines. But a line can be made from any latitude that can be named,
and there are an infinite number of those.
they are imaginery lines that encircle the earths surface in the east-west direction
Lines of constant latitude are parallel. No two of them meet anywhere.All lines of constant latitude cross all lines of constant longitude.
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
They are the lines of latitude, and they are also called parallels.
They are lines of constant latitude, all parallel to the equator.

What 2 lines of latitude cross north American
They are the lines of latitude, and they are also called parallels.
They are lines of constant latitude, all parallel to the equator.
2 lines of latitude do not touch because they are parallel to one another. Lines of longitude meet up at the poles.
Parallel lines are two lines that will never intersect, like this.________________________________________________________

The lines that intercept latitude lines are lines of longitude.
