Which of the above terms indicates imaginary parallel lines that circle the earth?
The term that indicates imaginary parallel lines that circle the Earth is "latitude." Latitude lines run horizontally around the globe, measuring the distance north or south of the Equator. These lines are used in geographic coordinate systems to help locate positions on the Earth's surface.

What is the reference point for lines longitude and where is it?
The reference for longitude ... the definition of 'zero' longitude ... is the Prime Meridian. That imaginary line joins the north and south poles, and runs through Greenwich, a suburb of London, UK.
What are shown as straight lines on a Mercator projection called?
The parallels of latitude and the meridians of longitude are all straight lines on the Mercator projection. That's why Greenland looks bigger than South America.
Give some real examples of intersecting lines?
If you are talking about lay lines there are several in Scotland and Great Britian, a Scotish Castle in Edinbrugh that continues to Stonehenge. There is an intersection of these lines in New Mexico and in Central and South America. These intersection of lay lines is said to have electromagnetic forces and can be a place of healing the physical body.
What imaginary line cuts across the top of South America?
The equator
What are the imaginary lines that run north and south across the earth called?
Imaginary lines that run north to south are known as lines of longitude. Longitude lines are the imaginary lines running through the Earth between the North and South Poles. They are arbitrary and used for reference so everyone can know where they are in the world. The lines running north and south are called "meridians" or "lines of longitude."
Imaginary lines that run north and south?
lines of longide
Imaginary lines used to measure distances north and south of the Equator are lines of?
Lines of latitude are imaginary lines used to measure distances north and south of the Equator or 0 degrees.
What are the imaginary lines that measure distance north to south of the equator?
parallel lines, or lines of latitude.
What imaginary parallel lines run around the globe?
The imaginary parallel lines that run around the globe are the lines of latitude. They are important for locating places on the Earth's surface and are measured in degrees north or south of the equator.
What name is given to the imaginary lines that run north and south?
These are known as lines of longitude or meridians
Imaginary lines of measure distances from south and north of the equator?
latitude
What term is used for imaginary lines north and south of the equator?
primemeridean
What are the imaginary parallel lines that run east-west?
The imaginary parallel lines that run east-west are called lines of latitude. These lines measure the distance north or south of the equator and are used to establish the location of a place on the Earth's surface.
What is the name of the two sets of imaginary lines on the globe?
-- Most of the imaginary lines on the surface are parallels of latitude, meridians of longitude, political boundaries, and shipping routes. -- The imaginary lines through the center of the globe are the axis and diameters.
What is a imaginary north south lines parallel to the prime meridian that circles the globe vertically?
Lines of longitude.
