What imaginary line goes around the earth from north to south?
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.)
What direction are meridians?
Every meridian is an imaginary semi-circle between the north and south poles. There are an infinite number of them, each one is more than 12,000 miles long, and every point on the same meridian has the same longitude.
What s the imaginary line from the north pole to the south pole on which the earth rotates on is called what?
Earth's Axis
An imaginary line that circles the earth from north to south is called both a?
line of longitude. Or a longitudinal line.
What is the name of the imaginary line that separates two hemispheres and runs from north to south?
The imaginary lines that run from north to south are called lines of longitude. The most significant one is the international date line, which divides the extreme east from the extreme west.

What is an imaginary line that forms an north to south is called what?
Latitude.

What are imaginary lines that go through the north pole and south pole called?
longitudinal lines run north/south; Latitudinal lines run east/west
How does the earth spin around?
Earth spins around its axis(or imaginary line from the north pole to the south pole) by gravity from earth itself and the surrounding planets.
