How many degrees do the parallels divide the earth into? 0 degrees 90 degrees 180 degrees 360 degrees

Answered by admin @



Answer: 0 degrees to 90 degrees

Explanation: Parallels are horizontally drawn lines (latitude).

Latitude is measured in degrees from north (n) to south (s) from 0 ° to 90 °.

The parallel Equator Line (latitude 0 °), called the zero degree parallel, divides the planet into two hemispheres: northern or northern, represented by the letter N, and southern or southern, represented by the letter S.

Above the equator, northern latitudes (ranging from 0 ° to 90 °), and below, south latitudes (ranging from -90 ° to 0 °) are determined.

Other parallels are:

Tropic of Cancer (23°27'N), Tropic of Capricorn (23º27’S), Arctic Circle (66º33’N) and Antarctic polar circle (66º33’S).
