What is another name for the lines that run across the globe east-west called besides latitude?
The lines on the globe are not called "latitude", any more than the marks on a thermometer are called "temperature". The lines on the globe that mark intervals of latitude are called "parallels" of latitude.
Another term for lines of latitude?
Parallels.An easy way to remember this is by remembering that lines of lattitude run parallel across the earth.
What is the name of the thin lines that run across a map?
The thin lines that run across a map are called longitude and latitude lines. Longitude lines run north to south, while latitude lines run east to west. These lines help in pinpointing specific locations on the Earth's surface.
Lines running parallel to the equator are called?
You have answered the question for yourself ; They are 'Latitudes''. Longitudes (Meridians) are lines that run North to South from the North Pole to the South Pole. Longitudes come to a point at the poles, but spread out to a maximum at the Equator.
What does the lines latitude run from?
Lines of latitude run east-west and measure the distance north or south of the equator. The equator is the starting point for measuring latitude, with 0 degrees at the equator and increasing to a maximum of 90 degrees at the poles.
Do latitude lines go up and down or across?
Latitude lines go -------- (across) And Longitude goes | | | (up & down)

What is a trick to help me remember in which direction latitude and longitude lines lie?
Latitude, with an A, goes across the map.Longitude, with an O, goes over the Poles.
