If your latitude always increases as you travel, you would continuously move toward the North or South Pole, depending on your starting point. This would mean trekking through various climates and ecosystems, potentially experiencing extreme weather conditions at higher latitudes. Eventually, you would reach the poles, where the environment is harsh and inhospitable. This scenario illustrates the concept of latitude as a measure of distance from the equator, affecting climate and geography.
No, temperatures generally decrease as latitudes increase. The equator (30° to 40°C) is 0° latitude while the poles (0° to -40°C) are at 90° latitude.
Yes, that's correct. The latitude lines are measured in degrees, with the equator being at 0 degrees latitude. As you move north of the equator, the latitude values increase, indicating that you are moving farther away from the equator towards the North Pole.
They are Lines of Latitude (sometimes known as Parallels of Latitude). The Equator (zero latitude) horizontally encircles the Earth and separates the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. Moving northwards from the Equator, the lines of Latitude increase in degrees. Moving South from the Equator, the lines of Latitude also increase in degrees the same as for the northern direction. The latitude of the North Pole is 90 degrees North, and the latitude of the South Pole is 90 degrees South.
Lines of latitude are always the same distance from each other, as they run parallel to the equator. Each degree of latitude is approximately 69 miles apart. Lines of longitude converge at the poles and are farthest apart at the equator.

Latitude will always be north and south on a world map. Longitude will always be east and west on a map.

Depends on the latitude. Sufficiently close to the poles there are ALWAYS icebergs. And sufficiently close to the equator there are NEVER icebergs. After that, icebergs or not is always a probability influenced by latitude and season.
