<span>The equator is 0 degree latitude. This imaginary line, which runs through parts of South America, Africa, and Asia, is officially the halfway point between the North Pole and the South Pole.</span>
<span>The prime meridian is 0 degrees longitude. This imaginary line runs through the United Kingdom, France, Spain, western Africa, and Antarctica.</span>
By using the equator and prime meridian, we can divide the world into four hemispheres, north, south, east, and west. For instance, the United States is in the Western Hemisphere (because it is west of the prime meridian) and also in the Northern Hemisphere (because it is north of the equator).
<span>These lines are merely for the identification of where things are on a map or a globe.</span>
The type of sediment that is made up mainly of the shells of diatoms and radiolarians are called the siliceous ooze<span>. Siliceous ooze is a siliceous pelagic sediment that covers large areas of the deep ocean floor. Calcareous ooze, siliceous ooze is formed from the tests of microorganisms; in the case of siliceous ooze, the organisms come in two varieties, diatoms and radiolarians. </span>

Europe is not a typically dry place (unlike for exampe Mesopotamia) so it does not need rivers for irrigation.
Instead, rivers are needed more for transport - they have served as a means of communication and for the exchange of goods.
For example, Danube allowed a big-scale trade between the cities lying on it: Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava.
