What hemisfar does eart have?

Answer 1

Earth has two hemispheres - the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. The Northern Hemisphere is north of the equator and the Southern Hemisphere is south of the equator. The equator which cuts the globe in half is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into two equal halves.

• Northern Hemisphere:
• Includes North America Europe Asia and the northern part of Africa
• Has colder climates
• Has longer days in the summer
• Southern Hemisphere:
• Includes South America Australia Antarctica and the southern part of Africa
• Has warmer climates
• Has longer days in the winter

Both hemispheres share the same land mass and the same oceans. Even though the hemispheres are divided by the equator they are interconnected and share many characteristics.
