50+ latitude and longitude worksheets for 5th Class on Quizizz ... - Free Printable

Let’s go through each question one by one, step by step.

---

Question 1:
> What is the name of this line at 0 degrees latitude?

- Latitude lines run east to west.
- The line at 0° latitude is the middle line that divides Earth into Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
- That line is called the Equator.
- South Pole and North Pole are points (90° S and 90° N), not lines.
- Prime Meridian is for longitude (0° longitude).

✔ Correct answer: B. Equator

Question 2:
> What is the name of the line at zero degrees longitude?

- Longitude lines run north to south.
- The line at 0° longitude is the starting point for measuring east and west.
- That line is called the Prime Meridian.
- It passes through Greenwich, England.
- Equator is for latitude. Poles are endpoints, not lines.

✔ Correct answer: C. Prime Meridian

Question 3:
> To locate the absolute location of places on Earth, one must look at:

- Absolute location means exact coordinates — like an address on a map.
- You need both latitude and longitude to pinpoint a place exactly.
- For example: New York City is around 40°N, 74°W.
- Using only one (latitude or longitude) gives you a line, not a point.
- Neighboring areas describe relative location, not absolute.

✔ Correct answer: A. the intersecting lines of latitude and longitude

Question 4:
> Which lines run on a globe from east to west?

- Lines that go east to west are latitude lines.
- They circle the globe horizontally.
- Longitude lines go north to south (from pole to pole).
- North Pole and South Pole are points, not lines.

✔ Correct answer: D. latitude lines

---

Question 5:
> Latitude lines go from east to west.

- As we just learned in Question 4, yes — latitude lines run east to west.
- They are parallel to the Equator.
- So this statement is true.

✔ Correct answer: A. True

Question 6:
> Lines of latitude divide the world into what two hemispheres?

- The main line of latitude is the Equator (0°).
- It splits Earth into:
- Northern Hemisphere (above the Equator)
- Southern Hemisphere (below the Equator)
- Other latitude lines don’t divide the whole world — only the Equator does that.
- Longitude lines divide into Eastern and Western Hemispheres.

So even though the image shows “Northern Hemisphere,” the question asks what two hemispheres latitude lines divide the world into — meaning the major division by the Equator.

✔ Correct answer: Northern and Southern Hemispheres

*(Note: Since no multiple choice options are shown for Q6 in your upload, but based on standard knowledge, this is the correct pair.)*
