Does each line of longitude parallel to another line of longitude?
Yes No, lines of longitude are as parallel to each other as the earth is flat. All longitudes intersect at the north and south poles.
Which line latitude and longitude parallel?
All lines of latitude are parallel with the equator.
What is the latitude and longitude of 60th parallel s?
The 60th parallel South is a line of latitude crossing all lines of longitude.
What is a line parallel to the earths surface?
That would be latitude or longitude.
Which lines are parallel to each other latitude or longitude?
Every line of constant latitude is parallel to all others. That's why they're often called "parallels" of latitude.
Which one line is parallel latitude or longitude?

What is the Network of parallels and meridians on the globe is called?
You mean latitude and longitude?
Lines of longitude are not parallel why?
because they merge at the poles... they seem to be parallel near the equtor region..n remenber parallel lines nver meet each other... n due to the shape of our earth these lines merge at poles...
How are line of longitude also called?
A line of constant longitude is often referred to as a 'meridian'.
Do all lines of longitude meet at the equator?
Each line of latitude (the ones parallel to the Equator) crosses each line of longitude (the north - south lines).
