The Andes Mountains, which are located in South America. They are the longest mountain chain in the world

Andes Mountain
That line has often been called the "Equator" in song and story, and on maps as well, too.
Because there are other influences on climate in addition to latitude, such as elevation, proximity to large bodies of water, location relative to mountains, etc.
-- All lines of longitude meet at the north and south poles. -- No two lines of latitude ever meet or cross each other. -- Every line of longitude crosses every line of latitude. -- Every line of latitude crosses every line of longitude. -- There are an infinite number of each kind, so there are an infinite number of places where a line of longitude crosses a line of latitude. (That's kind of the whole idea of the system.)
The longitude lines are always the same distance from each other.
The Andes mountain, now do your geography journal correctly!
A transversal is a line that crosses two or more other lines in the plane at different points.

The other name that is used for lines latitude is parallels. The main latitude is the equator which is at zero degrees.

The longitude lines are always the same distance from each other.
Lines of latitude are called parallels. The lines start at the equator and are located north and south of the equator.
Lines of latitude are all parallel to each other, and are parallel to the horizon on many printed maps.
Mount Oak Rd crosses the railroad tracks about a mile east of Church Rd. The center of the crossing is located at 38.9252° north latitude 76.7430° west longitude. Other spots around town have different coordinates.
Yes, lines of latitude are parallel to each other and never meet. They run East-West around the Earth and are used to measure distance north or south of the equator.
