Answer:
Five main characteristics of latitudes: All lines of latitude are parallel to each other and therefore, they do not meet one- another at any point. Lines of latitude are hoops or circles which keep decreasing in size towards the poles. The North and South Poles are only points and not circles. The equator is the longest line of latitude. Latitudes are drawn at intervals of \[1{}^\circ \]. The distance between two consecutive latitudes is about 111 kilometres. There are 181 lines of latitudes: 90 each to the north and south of the equator and the equator itself.
