Meridians of constant longitude cross parallels of constant latitude.
Parallels of constant latitude cross meridians of constant longitude.
At each intersection of a meridian and a parallel, the lines are perpendicular (form 90° angles).
The latitude and longitude of a place are known as its co-ordinates.
Lines of longitude and latitude cross each other and denote the absolute location of the area crossed by the coordinates. Each area on earth has it own absolute location.
The one that measures the angle from the equator and is tagged 'north' or 'south' is the latitude. The one that measures the angle from the Prime Meridian and is tagged 'east' or 'west' is the longitude.
No, no more than border lines between states or naions.
The lines of 10° N latitude and 0° longitude cross in the Gulf of Guinea, off the coast of West Africa. This location is near the country of Ghana. The point is situated in the ocean, not on land.
They intersect, yes.
What 2 lines of latitude cross north American
The latitude and longitude of a place are known as its co-ordinates.
The 'latitude' of a location is its angle north or south of the equator. The 'longitude' of a location is its angle east or west of the Prime Meridian.
The lines of 10°N latitude and 0° longitude cross in the country of Ghana, located in West Africa.
Lines of longitude and latitude cross each other and denote the absolute location of the area crossed by the coordinates. Each area on earth has it own absolute location.

There's no standard set of "lines", and there's no particular word that describes the intersection of a latitude and a longitude, since every one latitude intersects every possible longitude on Earth, and vice-versa. The crossing of a longitude 'line' and a latitude 'line', and their numbers, is exactly how any one specific point on the Earth's surface is located and described.
