Answer:

LATITUDES AND PARALLEL

Explanation:

Latitudes are the lines that are oriented in the east-west direction and are measured from the equator moving towards both the poles. It ranges from 0° to 90°, where 0° refers to the equator and 90° refers to both the poles on either side. This latitude together with the value of longitude gives the exact coordinates of a location on earth.

Parallels are the imaginary lines joining all the places lying on the same latitude. These are the lines oriented in the east-west direction. These lines are extended in both the hemisphere, maintaining a fixed distance from the equator.
