Question

which statement describes gridlines on a map?
○ they are measured in degrees.
○ they make straight lines on a globe.
○ they run north to west and south to east.
○ they divide earth into two equal parts.

Explanation:

Map gridlines (latitude/longitude) use degrees as their unit of measurement. Gridlines are curved on a globe, run north-south (longitude) and east-west (latitude), and only specific lines (like equator, prime meridian) divide Earth into two equal parts, not all gridlines.

Answer:

A. They are measured in degrees.
