Answer 1

First off IMPORTANT: There are two similar questions. The orange lines moving from East to West are latitude lines, while the yellow lines moving from North to South are longitude lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Longitude lines move up and down, while Latitude lines move side to side. The way I remember this is Latitude is fatitude (Fat) because fat=wide. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

On the world map above, which lines are highlighted and are moving from west to east are the lines of latitude. Imaginary lines known as latitude and longitude divide the Earth. Latitude lines are drawn east and west and they measure north and south. The lines start at the equator and measure distance from 0 degrees to 90 get from the equator. Lines of latitude and longitude are important factors in determining time zones.
