The equator runs north-south roughly through the middle of the continent of Africa. Answer
Bas_tet [7]
This is false, as the equator does not run north-south. The equators is the line that goes all around the planet in equal distance from the two poles: so it runs west-east.

It is true however that it runs roughly through the middle of the continent of Africa, but rather on the west-east axis.
