What does the parallel and meridians have in common?
Meridians are lines of longitude. The meridian lines go from the North pole to the South pole, such that all the lines converge at a single point on each pole. These lines measure degrees east and west of the prime meridian, which is located at 0 degrees.
What is located at 20 degrees west and 160 degrees east of the meridians?
The imaginary boundary between the Southern and Northern hemispheres is located at 20 degrees west and 160 degrees east of the Meridians. They are two semi-circular lines that are opposite of each other on the globe, which form an imaginary circle around the earth going through the poles.

Why is the zero degree longitude known as the Prime Meridian while others are simply meridians?
All other meridians are defined by their angular distance (from 0 to 180 degrees) from the arbitrary "prime" meridian. Half are measured east and the other half measured west, so that 180 degrees east is the same line as 180 degrees west (which is where the International Date Line is centered).
What is located at 20 degrees west and 160 degrees east of the meridians?
