Response
For Question 2:
Brief Explanations
  • Equator: The imaginary line around the middle of the Earth (0° latitude), dividing it into Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
  • Tropic of Cancer: Located at approximately 23.5° north of the Equator, the northernmost latitude where the Sun can be directly overhead.
  • Tropic of Capricorn: Located at approximately 23.5° south of the Equator, the southernmost latitude where the Sun can be directly overhead.
  • Arctic Circle: Located at approximately 66.5° north of the Equator, marks the start of the region with at least one day of midnight sun or polar night.
  • Antarctic Circle: Located at approximately 66.5° south of the Equator, marks the start of the region with at least one day of midnight sun or polar night.
  • Prime Meridian: The imaginary line (0° longitude) that runs from the North Pole to the South Pole, dividing the Earth into Eastern and Western Hemispheres. On a map, identify the vertical line (for longitude) at 0° and label it Prime Meridian, and the horizontal line (for latitude) at 0° as Equator. Then mark the Tropic of Cancer (23.5°N), Tropic of Capricorn (23.5°S), Arctic Circle (66.5°N), and Antarctic Circle (66.5°S) as per their latitude positions.
Brief Explanations
  • North Pole: The northernmost point on Earth, located at 90° north latitude, the topmost point of the Earth's axis of rotation.
  • South Pole: The southernmost point on Earth, located at 90° south latitude, the bottommost point of the Earth's axis of rotation.
  • Four Hemispheres:
  • Northern Hemisphere: The half of the Earth north of the Equator.
  • Southern Hemisphere: The half of the Earth south of the Equator.
  • Eastern Hemisphere: The half of the Earth east of the Prime Meridian.
  • Western Hemisphere: The half of the Earth west of the Prime Meridian. On the map, mark the North Pole at the top (90°N) and South Pole at the bottom (90°S). Then, using the Equator (0° latitude) to divide into Northern (above Equator) and Southern (below Equator) Hemispheres. Using the Prime Meridian (0° longitude) to divide into Eastern (right of Prime Meridian) and Western (left of Prime Meridian) Hemispheres.
Brief Explanations
  • Pacific Ocean: The largest ocean, spanning from the Arctic to the Southern Ocean, between Asia/Australia and the Americas.
  • Atlantic Ocean: The second - largest ocean, between the Americas and Europe/Africa, spanning from Arctic to Southern Ocean.
  • Indian Ocean: Located between Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Southern Ocean, mostly in the Southern Hemisphere.
  • Arctic Ocean: The smallest ocean, located around the North Pole, north of Europe, Asia, and North America. On the map, identify the large water bodies: the vast body between Asia, Australia, and Americas is Pacific; between Americas and Europe/Africa is Atlantic; between Africa, Asia, Australia is Indian; and the one around the North Pole is Arctic.

Answer:

  • Equator: 0° latitude line (horizontal, middle of the map).
  • Tropic of Cancer: ~23.5°N latitude line.
  • Tropic of Capricorn: ~23.5°S latitude line.
  • Arctic Circle: ~66.5°N latitude line.
  • Antarctic Circle: ~66.5°S latitude line.
  • Prime Meridian: 0° longitude line (vertical, often passing through Greenwich, UK on world maps).
