Yes. Australia is completely south of the Equator, and Mexico is completely
north of it. No matter what route you choose to travel between them, the
route must cross the Equator somewhere.

The path of a plane flying due North from a spot on an equator would appear to fly which way?

It would appear to fly east based on the Coriolis effect.


Does the moon revolve above earth's equator?

Close, but no. The moon's orbit is inclined to the plane of the Earth's orbit (the ecliptic plane) by about 5.1° . That's the same plane to which the Earth's equator is inclined by about 23.5° degrees ... causing the seasons and all that. If the moon orbited above Earth's equator, then it would always appear the same distance above the horizon as it passed its peak, south of your house (in the northern hemisphere). But you've probably noticed how the moon can appear really high on Winter nights, and really low on Summer nights.


What is the correct terminology for describing the location of the equator?

The correct terminology for describing the location of the Equator would be 0 degrees latitude. The equator is the "longest great circle" and consists of all points on the globe that are equidistant from the North and South Poles along the same line of longitude. The equator is also the intersection of the Earth's surface with a plane perpendicular to all planes that include the Earth's axis.


Does the earth sit in the middle of the equator?

The Earth has an equator. The equator goes around the middle of the Earth. The equator is the circular line that goes around the Earth that is half way between the North and South poles. The equator is defined by the Earth's rotation and for that matter so are the locations of the North and South poles. Even without the Sun as a guide, we would know there was an axis of rotation and so we would be able to define the mid-plane perpendicular to that axis half way between the two ends.


Which direction do parallels run?

Parallels would be 2 or more lines that run in the same direction and do not intersect.

Are you more likely to have a warm climate in Canada or in Mexico?

Mexico would have an overall warmer climate than Canada, because it is closer to the equator.


What kind of penguins live in Mexico?

The only penguins that live in Mexico would be in a zoo. Mexico is far too warm a climate for penguins, as they tend to live on the Antarctic circle.Mexico, on the other hand, is a subtropical country closer to the Equator. There are penguins to be found on the Galapagos Islands which are near the Equator, but the Galapagos Penguin (Spheniscus mendiculus) is the only penguin that lives north of the equator in the wild.
