Question

  1. write the line of latitude in words—15°n. name a continent or the parallel.
  2. write three facts about meridians

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. Latitude lines are parallel circles around the Earth. The 15°N latitude is one such line. It is an imaginary horizontal line. Examples of places near 15°N include parts of Mexico, Guatemala etc. For meridians, they are semi - circles that converge at the poles. They are used to measure longitude. They are not parallel to each other.

2.

Answer:

  1. The 15°N line of latitude is an imaginary horizontal circle on the Earth's surface. It is parallel to other lines of latitude. Some regions near 15°N are parts of Central America and northern parts of the Indian Ocean.
  2. Facts about meridians: Meridians are semi - circles that run from the North Pole to the South Pole. They are used to measure longitude. All meridians converge at the poles and are not parallel to each other.
