Since I can't view or access images directly, I can’t see the specific details of your image. However, if you're referring to a standard
"Lines of Latitude Practice" worksheet like the one described (with a world map and questions about latitude), I can help you solve it based on typical content.
Here’s how to answer each question using general geographic knowledge:
---
1. What continent is 15° N?
-
Answer: North America
-
Explanation: At 15° North latitude, you pass through parts of Central America and the southern part of Mexico, which are in North America.
---
2. What continent is 75° S?
-
Answer: Antarctica
-
Explanation: 75° South is very close to the South Pole, which lies in Antarctica. The entire continent is south of the 60°S parallel.
---
3. What ocean is at 45° N and on the Prime Meridian?
-
Answer: Atlantic Ocean
-
Explanation: The Prime Meridian (0° longitude) passes through the Atlantic Ocean at 45°N. This location is in the northern part of the Atlantic, between Europe and North America.
---
4. Name a line of latitude that hits North America.
-
Answer: 45° N (or any from 15°N to 80°N, such as 30°N, 40°N, etc.)
-
Explanation: North America spans from about 15°N to 80°N, so any latitude within this range intersects the continent.
---
5. Name a line of latitude that hits Australia.
-
Answer: 20° S (or 15°S, 30°S, etc.)
-
Explanation: Australia lies between approximately 10°S and 40°S. So lines like 20°S or 30°S cross the continent.
---
6. Name a line of latitude that hits Asia.
-
Answer: 30° N (or 45°N, 60°N, etc.)
-
Explanation: Asia extends from about 10°N to 80°N. Lines like 30°N (crossing India and China) or 45°N (crossing Russia and China) intersect Asia.
