Longitude lines run north ans south and latitude lines run west to east an easy way to remember is longitude has the word long in it ..so you know the those lines are vertical lines and that the latitude lines are the horizontal lines
zero longitude and every possible latitude.
The north-south lines on a map that show distance from the prime meridian are called lines of longitude or meridians. They help determine a location's east-west position on the Earth's surface. The prime meridian itself is designated as 0 degrees longitude, and lines to the east and west are measured in degrees up to 180.
No, lines of latitude parallel the equator and never cross each other. Whereas lines of longitude run north/south and intersect at both poles. The Prime Meridian is, by the way, a line of longitude.
prime meridian
No, that's latitude. Longitude is measured east or west of the Prime Meridian, which runs through the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England.
The Prime Meridian is a line of longitude (0°). It goes through every north or south measurementbetween the north pole and the south pole, and no other lines of longitude cross it.

They are measured east and west of the Prime Meridian. They run north-south across the globe from the North Pole to the South Pole.

prime meridian
Longitude is measured in degrees east or west of the Prime Meridian, which is the starting point for the Earth's longitudinal coordinate system. Longitude lines run north-south and indicate positions to the east or west of the Prime Meridian, which passes through Greenwich, England.
No, that's latitude. Longitude is measured east or west of the Prime Meridian, which runs through the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England.
The Prime Meridian is a line of longitude (0°). It goes through every north or south measurementbetween the north pole and the south pole, and no other lines of longitude cross it.
Latitude: Lines the run North and South but measure east and west.
Lines of Latitude run east and west (aka the Equator which is zero degrees latitude) and are measured north and south of the equator. Lines of longitude run north and south and are measured east and west from the Prime Meridian in Greenwhich, England.
The imaginary line is called the Prime Meridian.
All lines of longitude start at the North Pole.
