Lines of latitude are the horizontal lines on a map that stretches from the east to the west. 0 degrees latitude is the equator. A specific latitude is supposed to be combined with a specific longitude to show a precise position on Earth.
Latitude lines run east-west, parallel to the equator, while meridian lines run north-south, converging at the poles.
The set of imaginary lines that are all parallel to the equator are the parallels of latitude. Whether they're horizontal or not depends on how you hold your map.
The lines of longitude on a map goes from north-south
Latitude and LongitudeLatitude is the lines that go from east to west, and longitude from north to south.
No. Parallel lines are lines that extend in the same direction. In a triangle the lines go in different directions.
they go up and down
any direction they just run alongside each other

They do not cross. Lines that are parallel go in the same direction, but some distance apart. Coplanar means they are in the same horizontal plane. Therefore the two lines can never cross each other.
Yes they are. They go up and always remain parallel to the equator although it may look different on a flat map.
If by "level" you mean "horizontal", not necessarily. They can go in any direction.

Well, parallel lines are a pair of lines that could go on forever without intersecting. They could be going in the vertical direction or in the horizontal direction. I'm going to list a few shapes; circle triangle I'm sure there are more, but those are the only ones I could think of at the top of my head.
A way to remember what a parallel lines looks like is that the word "parallel" has two "ls" in it. Ex: Para"ll"el. Parallel lines go side by side in the same direction like rail road tracks. Hope this helped. ;)

Longitudinal lines run from pole to pole, parallel to the Prime Meridian. They help locate positions east or west of the Prime Meridian on a map or globe.
