THE EARTH : OUR HABITAT
There are ma proots that the Earth is round. The stron who went
to spare have take photograplus of the Earth which prove that the Earth
The Globe is a small replies of the Earth. If we observe it, we can see some
Borontal times and vertical fees om These are tagnary times and not
draw the Earth. The horizontal lines on the gobe are called Latitudes
and the vertical lines are called Longitudes
• The horizontal time which passes exactly through the middle of the globe is
know as the Equator. It is a O Lamade to divides the Earth into two equal
parts. The upper part is known as Northern hemisphere and the lower part
is known as the Southern hemisphere
There are 90 latitudes de consecutives
one atler another to the north from the
equatior. Similarly there are 90 larmides
to the south of equator also. All ladies
are parallel to each other.
• The Equator is the largest lachade. Every
Bastude to north or south becomes
smaller and becomes just a point instead
of actrese in extreme north and south
The point of the northern 90% Latitude is
known as North Pole and the point of
the southem 90 Latitude is known as
South Pole. These are the end points of
the ads of the globe
As the Earth is incline at 23.5" the
23.5' N. atitude (Tropic of Cancer) and the
235 S Latitude (Trople of Capricorn) are

important latitudes. Similarly the 66.5N
lattade (Arctic Circle) and 23.5*. lade (Antarctic Circle) are also importan
Every longtade is semicircle connecting North Pole and the South Pole
which means that all the longitudes meet each other at both poles. All Latitude

The Earth receives heat and light from the sun As the Earth is round, the
