Meridians of longitude; parallels of latitude. Remember that meridians are all the same length (20,000 km) and that they meet at the poles. Parallels are, well, parallel, and are different lengths, the longest being the Equator.
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.
These invisible lines that circle the earth and are vertical or running north to south are longitude or meridian lines. These lines are also perpendicular to lines called latitudes that are parallel to the equator.
Longitude is the best term, but sometimes meridian is used. The line of longitude at zero degrees is the Prime Meridian.
Yes, lines of longitude are also known as meridians. For example: 0° longitude is the the prime meridian.
Imaginary lines that run north to south are known as lines of longitude. Longitude lines are the imaginary lines running through the Earth between the North and South Poles. They are arbitrary and used for reference so everyone can know where they are in the world. The lines running north and south are called "meridians" or "lines of longitude."

I think its called the equator.

the lines on the globe are called longitude and latitude lines the longitude lines go up and down while the latitude lines go left to right
