Question : The equator represents:
Option 1: line joining the north and south poles.
Option 2: imaginary line passing around the Earth midway between the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere.
Option 3: line joining tropic of cancer and tropic of Capricorn.
Option 4: the axis of rotation of the Earth.
Correct Answer: imaginary line passing around the Earth midway between the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere.
Solution : The correct answer is an imaginary line passing around the Earth midway between the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere .
The equator is an imaginary line that circles the Earth horizontally, dividing it into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. It is located equidistant from the north and south poles. The equator represents 0 degrees latitude and is the widest circle of latitude on Earth. Locations on the equator experience nearly equal day and night throughout the year, and the climate is generally warm.
