Answer 1

Answer:

Latitudes help us determine how far north or south we are on the globe. They also help us determine things like regions, distance from the equator, and in many instances, climate. THEY BASICALLY HELP US TO LOCATE A PLACE ON MAP.

Explanation:

=>The lines running east to west, parallel to the Equator are called lines of latitude.

1)A latitude is marked in degrees, with the Equator being 0 degrees.

2) Latitudes are expressed in minutes (') and seconds (''). These lines show us the width of the map.
