Answer:
The five major lines of latitude, more commonly referred to as the five major circles of latitude, mark specific points on a globe or map of Earth. Four of the lines run parallel to the equator and sit north or south above or below the equator. Visible on a globe or map of the Earth, points on latitudes that cross over longitude lines mark specific locations on the Earth.
