It's the lines of longitude which are used to define time zones, not lattitude.
Time Zones are based on lines of Longitude - with detours to avoid land.
Lines of latitude, also known as parallels, indicate the distance north or south of the Equator, which is at 0 degrees latitude. They are measured in degrees, with the North Pole at 90 degrees North and the South Pole at 90 degrees South. These lines help in determining climate zones, time zones, and navigating geographically by providing a framework for locating positions on Earth.
Because time is based on the Earth's rotation which is from west to east, so that the Sun appears to move from east to west. Latitude lines run around the Earth east and west, so the sun doesn't cross them as it does longitude lines.
Meridian lines are imaginary lines that run north-south on maps and globes, helping to determine longitude. They are crucial for navigation and geographic positioning, allowing individuals to pinpoint specific locations on Earth with precision.
There is no relation. Every latitude passes through every time zone.

The Prime Meridian (0 degrees longitude) and the International Date Line (180 degrees longitude) determine time zones across the globe. Time zones are typically one hour apart for every 15 degrees of longitude difference.

rom east to west they are Atlantic Standard Time (AST), Eastern Standard Time (EST), Central Standard Time (CST), Mountain Standard Time (MST), Pacific Standard Time (PST), Alaskan Standard Time (AKST), Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (HST), Samoa standard time (UTC-11) and Chamorro Standard Time (UTC+10).
No, because latitudes are used to identify heat climates zones & longitudes are used for calculating time.
The lines of latitude are the North and South lines on the globe. They measure the time changes there are in areas.
Time zones are primarily based on longitude rather than latitude. The Earth is divided into 24 longitudinal sections, each representing one hour of time difference. This allows for a standardized way to coordinate time across the globe.

Oh, dude, no way! Cities on the same line of latitude don't necessarily have the same time. Time zones are a thing, you know? So, even if you're chilling on the same latitude line, you might be in a different time zone, and that means different times, bro. It's like time traveling without the DeLorean.
