Lines of longitude
The Prime Meridian (of 0 degrees west or east) run north-south through Greenwich in London, UK. Lines that run north-south that are parallel to the Prime Meridian (but which meet at the poles) and which describe the distance west or east of this line are called lines of Longitude.Lines of Latitude describe the distance north or south of the equator.
Longitude measures the distance east and west of the prime meridian.
Latitude is the measurement of distance north or south of the Equator. Longitude is the measurement of distance east or west of the prime meridian.
The longitude of a location is its angle east or west of the Prime Meridian.

The Prime Meridian is a Longitudinal line. That is, it runs North and South between the poles. Latitudinal lines run parallel to the equator and measure distance North or South of the equator. They run East and West, perpendicular to longitudinal lines. The Prime Meridian is at all latitudes.
longitude lines are east and westlatitude are north and south
Longitude measures the distance east and west of the prime meridian.
The lines on a globe that run north and south are called lines of longitude, or meridians. They measure distance east or west from the arbitrary Prime Meridian or Greenwich Meridian, established as 0° longitude.
Latitude is the measurement of distance north or south of the Equator. Longitude is the measurement of distance east or west of the prime meridian.
Longitude lines. They are also called meridians.
The longitude of a location is its angle east or west of the Prime Meridian.
No lines are parallel to the Prime Meridian. All of the meridians of longitude are farthest apart at the equator, and all converge at the north and south poles. Parallel lines would be the same distance apart everywhere, and never meet.
There are no geographic lines that are parallel to the Prime Meridian. Technically, every meridian of longitude is parallel to every other meridian of longitude, but only over an infinitesimal distance north or south of the equator. I'm quite sure that's not what you're looking for.

If one of them is the "prime" meridian, what do you suppose the others might be called? If you guessed "meridians", you win.
