What is the intersection of a line and a sphere is called?
Two points. These may coincide if the line is a tangent to the sphere.
What is a line that cuts a circle or a sphere in half called?
a bisecting line ? Diameter ______________ The question needs to be re-thought. Lines do not cut spheres in half, no matter where the line is in the sphere. The simplest thing that can cut a sphere in half would be a plane.
Are lines on a sphere in the same plane?
Not necessarily. A plane dissecting a sphere would create a circle in that plane. so in order for the "line" to be both on the plane and the sphere the line would have to be a curve or segment of a circle.
The intersection of this line and sphere and its interior is called?
Tangent
What is a straight line from the centerto the edge of a circle or sphere?
Diameter

What is the diameter of a sphere?
It's the length of any straight line that's completely inside the sphere and passes through its center. It's the longest possible straight line that can be completely enclosed inside the sphere.

What is a line segment bisecting a circle or sphere?
a secant
How many line of symmetry does the sphere has?

What solid can roll in a straight line?
a cylinder
What is a sphere shaped map of the world?
A globe!
How many lines of symmetry have a sphere?
A sphere has an infinite number of lines of symmetry
A straight line passing from side to side through the center of a circle or sphere?
A straight line passing from side to side going through the middle of a circle or sphere is a diameter.
What four sided shape has 896 line of symmetry?
sphere
