What is another name for 0 degrees latitude besides equator?
The Prime Meridian is the line whose longitude is defined as zero. The equator is the line whose latitude is defined as zero.
The equator is to latitude as which of the following is to longitude?
The prime meridian is to longitude. The prime meridian is the line of reference for measuring east-west positions on the Earth, just as the equator is the reference line for measuring north-south positions.
A point whose latitude is 0 degrees is located on the?
Equator. The Equator is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. Any point located at 0 degrees latitude lies directly on this line.
Is a city located 120 degrees E next to the east of the prime meridian or equator?
A city located at 120 degrees E is next to the east of the Prime Meridian but not necessarily next to the Equator. The Equator is at 0 degrees latitude, so the city's latitude would determine if it is close to the Equator.

Is the equator a parallel or a maridian?
The equator is the parallel that consists of every point on Earth whose distances from the north and south poles are equal. In the system of geographic coordinates that we've invented to describe the location of points on Earth, the equator is defined as zero latitude.

What is the largest circle that you can draw around Polaris without running into the horizon?
It's the circle whose radius is the same as your north latitude. (That means it depends on where you are, and if you're south of the equator, Polaris is below your horizon anyway and there is no such circle.)
What is the dividing the celestial sphere into northern and southern hemispheres?
There is no physical boundary between the northern and souther hemispheres. However, the imaginary line which is at 0o latitude is called the equator.
What to continents are crossed by the equator?
The two continents whose territory is crossed by the equator are Africa, Asia, and South America.
How far from the north pole in degrees is the arctic circle?
The Arctic Circle is the circle formed by all points on Earth whose latitude is roughly66.5° North. It goes all the way around the Earth at this latitude, and there is apoint on it at every longitude.The Arctic Circle itself is a parallel of latitude, at about 66.5° North.There is a point on it at every longitude.
Whose system in latitude and longitude helped in mapmaking?
