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.
Yes, latitude and longitude are connected to climate. Latitude affects climate because different latitudes receive varying amounts of sunlight, which influences temperature and weather patterns. Longitude affects climate by determining time zones, which can impact daily temperature fluctuations and weather patterns.
Longitude lines go from North to South.Latitude lines go from East to West.This means that two points on the same longitude but different latitude will most likely be in the same time zone and therefore have the same time on their clocks.There are minor exceptions to this, as some time zones are quite erratic in their structure, but IN GENERAL they will be the same.
No. Latitude determines location in the North/South direction. Longitude determines direction in the East/West direction. And it's places with the same East/West direction that share the same time zone.

Greenwich, London is at Longitude 0 and latitude N51.48 degrees. Greenwich is the universal reference point for time zones called Greenwich Mean Time or more commonly GMT. Most time zones are based on this reference as a number of hours and half-hours "ahead of GMT" or "behind GMT".
No. Latitude determines location in the North/South direction. Longitude determines direction in the East/West direction. And it's places with the same East/West direction that share the same time zone.
Lines of latitude allow any position north or south of the Equator to be found with reasonably accuracy. Which, along with lines of longitude, are extremely important in the navigation of shipping.
No, because latitudes are used to identify heat climates zones & longitudes are used for calculating time.
We use longitude and latitude when looking at a map to calculate time.
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.
