If you mark a dot on the globe at every point on Earth that's exactly midway
between the north pole and south pole, the dots blend together to form a line
all the way around the middle of the globe. That line is called the equator. The
latitude of any place on Earth is measured north or south from the equator.
The latitude of the equator itself is zero.
You mean latitude and longitude?
In social studies, latitude refers to the geographical measurement that indicates how far north or south a location is from the equator. It helps in understanding a place's climate, geography, and position in relation to other locations on the Earth's surface.
As you know, the latitude number must be further clarified as 'north' or 'south' latitude, and the longitude number must be further clarified as 'east' or 'west' longitude. But when you do that, it's hard for a computer to read the information ... which has become a pretty important consideration now. So nowadays, it's common to see latitude written as ' + ' for north and ' - ' for south, and longitude written as ' + ' for east and ' - ' for west. Computers understand the difference between positive and negative numbers very well, and this makes it easier all around.
Latitude = Fatitude = AROUND THE WORLD. It doesn't really mean parallel. The equator is a line of latitude. Latitude = Fatitude = AROUND THE WORLD. It doesn't really mean parallel. The equator is a line of latitude. Latitude = Fatitude = AROUND THE WORLD. It doesn't really mean parallel. The equator is a line of latitude. Latitude = Fatitude = AROUND THE WORLD. It doesn't really mean parallel. The equator is a line of latitude. Latitude = Fatitude = AROUND THE WORLD. It doesn't really mean parallel. The equator is a line of latitude. Latitude = Fatitude = AROUND THE WORLD. It doesn't really mean parallel. The equator is a line of latitude.
If you select any two random values of latitude, and put a dot on the globe at every point on Earth that has one of those latitudes, you'll wind up with two lines that go all the way around the globe. The two lines will be parallel to each other ... they'll be the same distance apart everywhere, and they won't touch or cross anywhere. Such lines are called 'parallels of constant latitude'.

The lines of longitude are all the same length. There is no longest line of longitude. Now, if you mean latitude, then that would be the equator.

A latitude is measured in degrees from the equator to the north (or south) pole. I assume that you mean, "What is the line that forms the zero degrees latitude?" The answer is the Equator.
Mexico. Northwest of Mexico City. The degrees mean how much above the equator and how much west of England.
It depends what you mean really. If you went all round the equator, you would pass through either 0 degrees of Latitude or Longitude. This is what I suspect, but I don't know for certain.
Latitude is a measurement of how far north or south a point on Earth is from the equator, expressed in degrees. It helps to locate positions on the Earth's surface and is used in various scientific disciplines, such as climatology, meteorology, and astronomy.
If you mean Seoul, the capital of the Republic of Korea, it's centered at 37.55° north latitude 126.97° east longitude.
