The equator and the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn
Between any two parallels of latitude, you may draw as many more lines of latitudeas you feel you need on your map. There is no 'official' set of 'lines', and the truth isthat between any two latitudes you name, no matter how close together they are,an infinite number of other latitudes can be named.
They are lines of longitude and latitude, often just longitudes and latitudes.
On the earth (and planetary/stellar bodies) they are called latitudes and longitudes.
Yes. All latitudes are approximately 111 km apart.
The two endpoints of all latitudes are the North Pole and the South Pole. Latitude lines run parallel to the equator, which is at 0 degrees latitude, and they measure the distance north or south of this equator up to 90 degrees at each pole. The North Pole is at 90 degrees north latitude, while the South Pole is at 90 degrees south latitude.
90 north latitudes + 90 south latitudes + 1 line of equator

Latitude lines are parallel but not longitude lines.
Yes, just as sure as there are measurements between two lines on a ruler, and latitudes between two parallels on a globe.
Parallels are lines that go up and down the map, latitudes are lines that go across the map from side to side.
The horizontal lines are called latitudes and the vertical lines are called longitudes.
The horizontal lines are called latitudes and the vertical lines are called longitudes.
They are simply just called lines.
one direction
The equator is one..... Hope this helped!
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
Both! All lines of latitude between the equator and the tropic of cancer are high latitudes, and lines of latitude between the equator and the tropic of capricorn are considered low latitudes. ***THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE TROPICAL LATITUDES*** <- those I can't name
