Answer:

A great circle is the largest possible circle that can be drawn around a sphere. ... The Equator is another of the Earth's great circles. If you were to cut into the Earth right on its Equator, you'd have two equal halves: the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The Equator is the only east-west line that is a great circle.
