Because the unequal distribution of land and water and ocean currents influence their direction.
parallel lines. they run side by side but never intersect
parallel lines.....
Parallel lines run in the same direction. If they are intersected by one line and that line is perpendicular to both, then it proves that the lines run parallel to each other.
Lines of latitude are horizontal and run parallel to the poles
Usually degrees Celsius.
Isotherms connect points of equal temperature on a weather map. The lines of isotherms naturally run parallel to each other. Their spacing indicates temperature variance.
what is the similaraties between isobars and isotherms ]
Isobars and isotherms are both lines on a weather map that connect points of equal value. Isobars connect points of equal atmospheric pressure, while isotherms connect points of equal temperature. Both are used to analyze and understand weather patterns and conditions.

Isotherms run in an east-west direction because temperature variations are more likely to be influenced by differences in longitude (east-west) rather than latitude (north-south). The rotation of the Earth creates variations in temperature patterns from east to west due to the distribution of sunlight and the angle of incidence.
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
Isotherms that run straight across the map from east to west are typically found in the tropical regions near the equator. This is because the temperature in these regions is relatively consistent throughout the year due to the amount of sunlight they receive.
Isotherms are contour lines on maps that connect points on a weather map that have equal temperatures at a given time. Meteorologist study isotherms on weather maps.

No, the longitudinal lines run perpendicular to the Equator, from the North Pole to the South Pole. They converge at the poles and are farthest apart at the Equator.
The isotherms get closer together
Isobars are lines that eqaul pressure isotherms are line that equal tempature
