Where is the equator?

The equator is the longest circumferential line in the trajectory of each point on the earth's surface with the earth's rotation. What is the equatorial radius? 6378. 137Km? ; Pole radius? 6359.752 kilometers; Average radius? 637 1.0 12Km? ; Equatorial circumference? 40075.7 kilometers. If the earth is regarded as an absolute sphere, the equator is equal to the north and south poles, which is a great circle. It divides the earth into two hemispheres, the northern hemisphere in the north and the southern hemisphere in the south. This is the baseline for dividing latitude, and the latitude of the equator is 0. ? The equator is the place with the least gravity on the earth. The equator is the starting point of the north-south latitude (zero latitude) and the longest latitude on the earth.

The equator is the factory of species. Compared with other species less fortunate to enjoy this geographical advantage, equatorial animals live in an almost perfect environment, whether it is temperature, humidity or available food. The only disadvantage of living in this paradise is to share resources with more than half of the species on earth! ? At the equator, animals and plants grow faster, bigger and weirder than anywhere else. Sunlight in the equatorial region is the most powerful energy on earth. Because the sunlight here evaporates a lot of oceans, this effect will form a humidity column in such a large area, then form wind and undercurrent, and finally provide energy for life in extremely distant places.
