The imaginary lines running from the North Pole to the South Pole on the globe are called longitudes.
Characteristics of longitudes:
- Distances between longitudes are measured in ‘degrees of longitude.’
- Each degree is further divided into minutes, and minutes into seconds.
- Longitudes are semi-circular in shape.
- The distance between longitudes reduces as they move towards the poles.
