Answer:
1.All of the imaginary circles parallel to the Equator are called parallels of latitudes.
2.Since the Earth is flattened at the poles and bulges at the Equator, geodesy represents the figure of the Earth as an oblate spheroid. The oblate spheroid, or oblate ellipsoid, is an ellipsoid of revolution obtained by rotating an ellipse about its shorter axis.

3. A globe is the model of the earth It’s type are Terrestrial and spherical
4. time at a particular place as measured from the sun’s transit over the meridian at that place, defined as noon.
