⭐️⭐️⭐️ LATITUDES ⭐️⭐️⭐️
The lines of latitudes are imaginary lines that are drawn from east to west as parallels on the globe. Latitudes are referred to as parallels.
The 0° latitude drawn from east to west the equator. It runs across the globe dividing the earth onto two halves known as the northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere.
The parallel lines north of the equator are known as the north latitudes and those that are south if the equator are known as the south latitudes.
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. THE LATITUDINAL EXTENT ALSO INFLUENCES THE DURATION OF DAY AND NIGHT, AS ONE MOVES FROM SOUTH TO NORTH.

Just like our houses have addresses that make it easy for us to locate them, geographers have designed imaginary lines that rum horizontal and vertical and make it easy to locate places on the earth. These lines are known as the latitudes and the longitudes.
