This is the latitude that divides the globe in half.

This is how many planets there are in the solar system.
There are eight planets in the solar system.

The Earth spins.
True.
These two planets have rings around them.
What are Saturn and Uranus?

What are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars?
These the the two halves of the Earth diveded by the Prime Meridian.
What are the Western Hemisphere and the Eastern Hemisphere?
This is marked by latitude first, then longitude.

Latitudes are measured from zero degrees to one hundred and eighty degrees.
False. latitudes are measured from zero degrees to ninty degrees.
These are the planets made of gas.
What are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune?
These are the two halves of the Earth divided by the Equator.
What are the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere?
True or false: if the Earth did not have a tilt then there would be no seasons.
True. In the summer the Earth is tilted towards the sun, making it warmer, and in the winter the Earth is tilted away fromt he sun, making it colder.
