If you mean the 'lines' that make up the grid, then they are co-ordinate sections. For example: if I told you to go to A2, that section may display a piece of China.

Usually they indicate the borders between the states.
The lines that connect points having the same elevation are a kind of isopleth called contour lines, or contours.The closer that the lines are on the map the steeper the terrain is.
If the lines are contours - it signifies that the land is steeper the closer the lines are drawn
The United States Geographical Services [ USGS ] map should show you all the major fault lines across the whole country.
Parallels are lines that go up and down the map, latitudes are lines that go across the map from side to side.
The thin lines that run across a map are called longitude and latitude lines. Longitude lines run north to south, while latitude lines run east to west. These lines help in pinpointing specific locations on the Earth's surface.
On a map, longitude lines go up and down, AKA vertically. Latitude lines are horizontal lines on a map.
Blue on a map usually denotes water. Blue lines could be streams and rivers.
The black lines mean it is a state boundary.
Lines on a map connecting places with equal rainfall are called isohyets. These lines help depict variations in rainfall across different regions.

It depends on the scale of the map. On a map of the world or a continent, the parallel lines will generally go horizontally across the map - East to West. For a large scale map, showing a small country or a local area, the vertical lines (North - South) will also be shown as parallel.
Geographers and sailors created a system of imaginary lines to locate places on the globe. One set of lines runs east and west, parallel with the equator. The other set of lines divide the earth into sections from one pole to the other. If you know which latitude line and which longitude line runs across a given place, you can find that place on a map by looking at the longitude and latitude lines on a map.
An isotherm is a line along which the temperature is constant.An isothermal map is useful since it shows us where temperatures are similar and where they are different. This is the type of map that we think about when we think about temperatures across the United States from the nightly weather report or the back of USA Today.Found it here: http://www.ux1.eiu.edu/~jpstimac/1400/chapter3.html
Isolines, specifically isotherms, are lines on a weather map that connect points of equal temperature. This helps to visualize temperature patterns and gradients across a geographic area.
