E Tropic of Capricorn or Southern tropic is one of the five major circles of latitude that mark maps of the Earth. It is the parallel of latitude at 23° 26′ 22″ south of the Equator, and is the farthest southern latitude that the sun can appear directly overhead, occurring on the December solstice. Its northern hemisphere equivalent is the Tropic of Cancer. Latitudes south of the Tropic of Capricorn are in the Southern Temperate Zone. North of this line are the Tropics.
<span>The Tropic of Capricorn is so named because about 2000 years ago the sun was entering the constellation Capricornus on the December solstice. In modern times the sun appears in the constellation Sagittarius during this time. The change is due to precession of the equinoxes. </span>
<span>The Tropic of Cancer (cancer is Latin for crab), or Northern tropic is one of the five major circles of latitude that mark maps of the Earth. It is the parallel of latitude that lies currently 23° 26′ 22″ north of the Equator. </span>

<u>From the given options which may suitably apply to the description of grid-lines of the map are
</u>
- They are measured in degrees
- They set up a reference system
- They divide Earth into four equal parts
Answers: Options A, B and E
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Option A describes that the grid-lines of the map are measure in degrees, which are very true as the grid are lined with angular measurement which thus be done in unit of angles and is in degrees only.
Option B says it develops the reference system which specifies about the area being plotted are grid depending upon the size which sets up the referential system of enumeration.
Option E is true as the world or the Earth has been divided into 4 equal parts through the Prime Meridian as the longitudinal line and Equator as the latitudinal line.
