Question

Which circle appears as a point on the globe?
(a) Equator (b) North / South Pole (c) Prime Meridian

Answer 1

All lines of latitude form an imaginary sphere around the world and due to these circles being parallel to the Earth’s Equator, they’re parallels of latitude.

The more the distance of such circles from the earth’s Equator, the smaller they happen to be. At the north and south Poles they are merely points and so the answer to the circles that appear as points on the world map is North / South Pole.

Meridians refer to the lines of longitude that converge at the North and south Poles. The one running through Greenwich, The UK is accepted all over the world as the 0° longitude line. 

Answer 2

Explanation:

At the north and south Poles they are merely points and so the answer to the circles that appear as points on the world map is North / South Pole. Meridians refer to the lines of longitude that converge at the North and south Poles.
