What lines run north and south but are measured east and west of prime meridian?
Longitude lines run north ans south and latitude lines run west to east an easy way to remember is longitude has the word long in it ..so you know the those lines are vertical lines and that the latitude lines are the horizontal linesThe Prime Meridian is the line made out of all the points on earth that have zero longitude and every possible latitude.
Which way is longatude and which way is latitude?
longitude is the long way...or horizontal. latitude is vertical, or up and down.
How are the equator and the prime meridian alike?
The prime meridian and the equator are alike because they are both invisible lines that split the earth in half. The equator is horizontal (side to side) and the prime meridian is vertical (up and down). The equator divides the Northern and Southern Hemisphere and the Prime Meridian divides the Western and Eastern Hemisphere.
Does the Prime Meridian run through Tokyo?
No, the Prime Meridian does not run through Tokyo. The Prime Meridian passes through Greenwich, London, and serves as the starting point for measuring longitude.
What lines on a map that run parallel to the Prime Meridian?
The only lines that can run parallel to the Prime Meridian on any map are other meridians of longitude, and the only map on which they can be printed parallel to it is a Mercator Projection. They are not really parallel to the Prime Meridian.
Does the prime meridean run vertical or horizontal?
Vertical
What is the name of the imaginary line that run around the center of earth?
The horizontal line that goes around the "waist" of the Earth is the Equator. The vertical line that goes vertically around the Earth, through the poles, is the Prime Meridian.

Which direction do meridian run?
North to South
Which way is longatude and which way is latitude?
longitude is the long way...or horizontal. latitude is vertical, or up and down.
What connects the horizontal run?
vertical rise?
What is the difference between vertical and horizontal lines?
vertical lines run from top to bottom, horizontal lines run from left to right the difference between the two is 90 degrees if you place vertical lines next to horizontal lines.

What is a vertical or horizontal line used in map graphs called?
In map graphs, a vertical line is typically called a "longitude" line, while a horizontal line is referred to as a "latitude" line. Longitude lines run from the North Pole to the South Pole and measure distances east and west of the Prime Meridian. Latitude lines run parallel to the Equator and measure distances north and south of it. Together, these lines create a grid that helps in pinpointing locations on the Earth's surface.
What 3 continents does the prime meridian run through?
The prime meridian runs through three continents. These continents include Europe, Antarctica, and Africa. The prime meridian is also referred to as the Greenwich meridian.
