HI DEAR

UR ANSWER IS HERE

1. a line we imagine through the middle of an object, around which the object turns a fixed line used for marking measurements on a grap

2. Latitude. Lines of latitude measure north-south position between the poles. The equator is defined as 0 degrees, the North Pole is 90 degrees north, and the South Pole is 90 degrees south. Lines of latitude are all parallel to each other, thus they are often referred to as parallels.

3.The Arctic Circle. The Arctic Circle runs at 66 degrees 33 minutes north latitude, making it the northernmost special parallel of latitude. ...

4.A meridian is the half of an imaginary great circle on the Earth's surface, terminated by the North Pole and the South Pole, connecting points of equal longitude, as measured in angular degrees east or west of the Prime Meridian.

5. prime meridian

prime meridianThe prime meridian divides the earth into eastern and western hemispheres. The region east of the Prime Meridian is the Eastern hemisphere and the reason west of the Prime Meridian is the western hemisphere. Any circle drawn around the Earth divides it into two equal halves called hemispheres.

6. It is an effective design which is generally to find a particular location of a place on the globe or map. A grid helps us to locate or find out the "exact location" of a place with detailed description of the latitudinal and the longitudinal extent of the place, on a globe or a flat map

Answer:

1) an imaginary line about which a body rotates.

2) Latitude is an angle (defined below) which ranges from 0° at the Equator to 90° (North or South) at the poles. Lines of constant latitude, or parallels, run east–west as circles parallel to the equator. Latitude is used together with longitude to specify the precise location of features on the surface of the Earth.

3) The Arctic Circle. The Arctic Circle runs at 66 degrees 33 minutes north latitude, making it the northernmost special parallel of latitude. ...

The Tropic of Cancer. ...

The Tropic of Capricorn. ...

The Antarctic Circle.

4) Imaginary lines, also called meridians, running vertically around the globe. Unlike latitude lines, longitude lines are not parallel. Meridians meet at the poles and are widest apart at the equator. Zero degrees longitude (0°) is called the prime meridian.

5)The Prime Meridian divides the globe into Eastern and Western hemispheres, just as the equator divides the globe into Northern and Southern hemispheres. The Prime Meridian is at 0 degrees longitude, just as the equator is at 0 degrees latitude. Use a time zone map to locate the Prime Meridian and Greenwich, England.

6)It is an effective design which is generally to find a particular location of a place on the globe or map. A grid helps us to locate or find out the "exact location" of a place with detailed description of the latitudinal and the longitudinal extent of the place, on a globe or a flat map.
