Days and nights are equal throughout the globe when the sun is above the Equator.
Latitude of the South Pole is 90°.
The 0° latitude (Equator) forms a great circle.
The latitude of a place expresses its angular position relative to the plane of the Equator.
The Equator is the farthest from the centre of the Earth.
If the time difference between two places is 2 hours and 20 minutes, their longitude difference would be 35°.
When a ship crosses the International Date Line from west to east, it loses one day.
The International Date Line passes through the Bering Strait.
Sense of time is due to the rotation of Earth.
The Equator is a great circle.
The standard time is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), used in all countries.

The International Date Line makes a slight deviation from the 180° meridian so that it does not divide a group of islands under the same administration.
The Earth turns through 360° in 24 hours, so each 15° longitude represents one hour.
The circumference of the Earth is approximately 69 miles per degree of latitude.
The correct statement is that all longitudes and the Greenwich Meridian are great circles.
The International Date Line is located in the Pacific Ocean.
The USA is divided into 7 time zones.
Latitudes and longitudes both pass through the poles.
The latitude of a point on the Earth is measured by the distance in kilometers from the Equator.
The International Date Line is an imaginary line extending from pole to pole along the 180° meridian.
The maximum spacing of longitudes is at the Equator.
The local time of a place is known with reference to its longitudinal position.
The world is divided into 24 time zones.
A chronometer is a highly accurate timepiece used to keep Greenwich Mean Time.
A graticule is the complete network of parallels and meridians on the Earth.
A scale that tells the distance between any two places is known as None of these.
The difference between a small circle and a great circle is that a great circle divides the Earth into two equal halves, while a small circle does not.
The Equator is the only line that is a great circle among the options given.
The Prime Meridian is also called the Greenwich Meridian.
