No. Longitudinal lines run parallel to the Prime Meridian. Latitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator.
Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator, and that includes the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are also parallel to the equator.See the link below
One region where hypothetical isotherm patterns can be observed is in the tropics, near the equator. In this region, temperatures remain relatively constant throughout the year, leading to isotherms that are parallel to the equator. This phenomenon is influenced by the consistent angle at which sunlight strikes the Earth's surface at the equator, resulting in minimal variation in temperature.
Lines of latitude circle the earth, parallel to the equator.
They are parallel to the earth's equator. So if you consider the equator as being horizontal then they are horizontal.
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
No. Longitudinal lines run parallel to the Prime Meridian. Latitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator.
Lines of Latitude encircle the Earth, running parallel to the Equator.
Lines that run parallel to the equator are called latitude lines or parallels.
Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator, and that includes the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are also parallel to the equator.See the link below
The only line that runs parallel through the equator is THE EQUATOR. [The Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn are parallel to the equator, but are north and south of it (respectively) at 23.5 degrees. So they do not run through the equator.] The lines of longitude all run through the equator, but they are not parallel to each other since they all meet up at both the North and South Poles.

Lines of latitude run parallel to the Equator (which is zero latitude).
Lines of latitude.
Lines of latitude circle the earth, parallel to the equator.
Latitude lines run parallel to the equator.
Lines of equal Latitude run parallel (ie never cross) East-West (such as the Equator) Lines of equal Longitude (Meridian) run North-South and cross at the Poles.
