There are five distinctive parallels of latitude which have some physical significance, and which have their own special names. These are the equator, the Tropic of Cancer, the Tropic of Capricorn, the Arctic Circle, and the Antarctic Circle.
The only one of these that pass through India is the Tropic of Cancer.

What continent goes through three of the important parallels of latitude?
It's tough to figure out what this question is getting at, because there arean infinite number of parallels of latitude, not three.I'm going to take a wild guess: The question is referring to the three parallelsthat have names and are grouped in the middle of the globe, where they're mostnoticeable . . . the Equator, the Tropic of Cancer, and the Tropic of Capricorn.All three of those parallels cross the continent of Africa.You're welcome. And if that's not the intent of the question, then it seems to methat the question is otherwise quite meaningless.

Another name for latitude lines is?
Lines of longitudes are also called Meridians. These vertical lines are drawn from the North to South poles.The meridian through Greenwich, England, called the Prime Meridian, was set at zero degrees of longitude. The meridian on the opposite side of the earth from Greenwich is called the International Date Line (IDL), which is at roughly 180° longitude.
