Answer 1

• The lines of latitude and longitude comprise an imaginary grid that has been placed over the globe;

• The lines that run across the grid (the flat lines) are lines of LATITUDE. The Equator is an example of LATITUDE line. The Equator is the LATITUDE line that divides Earth into two hemispheres (since it is the 0 point in latitude): the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. Latitude lines North from the Equator are referred to as North LATITUDE; and latitude lines South from the Equator are referred to as South LATITUDE;

• Each latitude degree or longitude contains 60 minutes, and each latitude minute contains 60 seconds;

• The lines that run up and down on the grid (the tall lines) are LONGITUDE lines. The LONGITUDE lines are also called meridians. The Prime Meridian, which passes through Greenwich, England, is the LONGITUDE line that divides Earth into two hemispheres (since it is the 0 point of longitude): the eastern hemisphere and the western hemisphere. Longitude lines East from the Prime Meridian are referred to as East LONGITUDE; longitude lines West from the Prime Meridian are referred to as WWest LONGITUDE
