Define latitudes and longitudes?Write the characteristics of them.

A geographic coordinate system is a coordinate system associated with positions on Earth. A geographic coordinate system can give positions: as spherical coordinate system using geocentric latitude,

Both longitude and latitude are angles measured with the center of the earth as an origin. A longitude is an angle from the prime merdian, measured to the east (longitudes to the west are negative). Latitudes measure an angle up from the equator (latitudes to the south are negative).

The latitudes are the parallel circles with respect to the equator reducing in length northwards and southwards and the poles are the points only. On the other hand longitudes are equal in length drawn from North Pole to South Pole with their intervals reducing towards poles

Explanation: HOPE IT HELPS...

Explanation:

latitudes is  the angular distance of a place north or south of the earth's equator, or of the equator of a celestial object, usually expressed in degrees and minutes.

Longitudes is the measurement east or west of the prime meridian.

Characteristics  of longitudes is Each meridian is half of a great circle.

They run in a true north-south direction from. connecting the North and South Poles.

They are spaced farthest apart at the equator but. converges at the poles.

Meridians help us to determine standard time.

latitudes  Characteristics  

There are 180 parallels of latitudes apart from the Equator.

Each parallel of latitude is a circle.

Only the Equator is a Great Circle, all the rest of the latitudes are Small Circles.

the answer is:

c. islam and christianity

explanation:

islam and christianity are widely practiced in africa. islam is practiced due to its spread from the middle east into africa, and christianity is practiced due to the colonization of africa by the british empire.
