Question

(e) What are parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude? () Why does the Torrid Zone receive maximum amount of heat​

Answer 1

Answer:

(e) Parallels of latitude are the circles which are parallels from the equator to the poles whereas the lines of reference running from the North Pole to the South Pole are called meridians of longitude.

The mid-day sun directly faces the area between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. So the heat received is maximum at these latitudes. These latitudes fall under the Torrid Zone.
