Answer:

Lines of latitude decrease in length with increasing distance from the equator.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Latitudes are those distinct equidistant parallel lines encircling the Earth that start from the equator and advance towards the poles in both the northern and the southern hemispheres.
  • As the cut-sectional diameter of Earth starting from the equator as circumference goes on decreasing towards the poles, the lengths of the imaginary latitudes encircling the Earth also go on decreasing gradually.
