What creates the Northern and Southern Hemispheres?
A
The earth’s axis
B
The earth’s equator
C
The earth’s revolution around the sun
D
The earth’s rotation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An equator is an imaginary line around the middle of a planet or other celestial body. It is halfway between the north pole and the south pole, at 0 degrees latitude. An equator divides the planet into a northern hemisphere and a southern hemisphere.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Equator, or line of 0 degrees latitude, divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern hemispheres.

Detailed explanation-3: -The equator is the most well known parallel. At 0 degrees latitude, it equally divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern hemispheres. From the equator, latitude increases as you travel north or south, reaching 90 degrees at each pole.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Earth’s Equator is the imaginary line that runs around the center of the globe at 0 degrees latitude, at equal distance between the North and South Poles. Like the other lines of latitude, it’s based on the Earth’s axis of rotation and its orbit around the sun.

Detailed explanation-5: -During the day in the Northern Hemisphere, the sun rises to its maximum point at a southerly position. This is because goes with the direction of the equator (south). In the Southern Hemisphere, the opposite situation takes place. Therefore, in the south, the sun rises to the maximum point in a northern direction.
