Solution
The correct option is A latitude
Set of imaginary circular lines drawn horizontally between two poles and parallel to each other are called latitude.These imaginary lines running east-west are commonly known as the parallels of latitude. The vertical lines running north-south, join the two poles. They are called the meridians of longitude. They are spaced farthest apart at the equator and converge at a point at each pole.
