What are parallels and meridians and how are they different?
A "parallel" is a line comprised of all the points on Earth with the same latitude ... the angle measured north or south of the equator. Each parallel is a full circle, that crosses all meridians. A "meridian" is a line comprised of all the points on Earth with the same longitude ... the angle measured east or west from the Prime Meridian. Each meridian is a half- circle, that crosses all parallels.

Lines of latitude and lines of longitude are perpendicular to?
