To solve this task, we need to correctly label the four hemispheres based on the Earth's divisions:
- The
Equator divides the Earth into the
Northern Hemisphere (above the equator) and the
Southern Hemisphere (below the equator).
- The
Prime Meridian (0° longitude) divides the Earth into the
Eastern Hemisphere (to the east of the Prime Meridian) and the
Western Hemisphere (to the west of the Prime Meridian).
Now, let's identify where each label should go:
1.
Top box (above the globe) → This is
above the Equator, so it should be labeled:
-
✔ Northern Hemisphere
2.
Bottom box (below the globe) → This is
below the Equator, so it should be labeled:
-
✔ Southern Hemisphere
3.
Left box (to the left of the globe) → This is
west of the Prime Meridian, so it should be labeled:
-
✔ Western Hemisphere
4.
Right box (to the right of the globe) → This is
east of the Prime Meridian, so it should be labeled:
-
✔ Eastern Hemisphere
---
Final Answer:
-
Top box:
Northern Hemisphere
-
Bottom box:
Southern Hemisphere
-
Left box:
Western Hemisphere
-
Right box:
Eastern Hemisphere
This labeling correctly reflects the global divisions based on the Equator and the Prime Meridian.
