Answer 1

c. Latitude

Step-by-step explanation:

The angular distance north or south from the earth's equator beginning at 0° at the equator and ending at 90° of either pole is the latitude.

The equator is a line of latitude that divided the earth into two hemispheres.

Only the equator is a great circle as a line of latitude. Others are small circles.
