GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -The Equator, or line of 0 degrees latitude, divides Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The Northern Hemisphere contains North America, the northern part of South America, Europe, the northern two-thirds of Africa, and most of Asia.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Equator is an imaginary line around the middle of Earth. It is halfway between the North and South Poles, and divides Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.

Detailed explanation-3: -The equator divides the Earth into Northern and Southern hemispheres. The Earth’s orbit around the sun and the tilt of the Earth’s axis affect the seasonal changes in these two hemispheres. Because the Earth’s axis is tilted, it is angled with respect to the sun.
