The lines of longitude are represented in green on most maps and globes.
It is to do with the scale used on the maps and globes.
Some maps and globes ... such as those with a line printed every 15° of latitude ... have lines marked at 45° north and 45° south. Some maps and globes ... such as those with a line printed every 10° of latitude ... don't. Some maps and globes have no lines printed on them at all.
The interval between lines of latitude is generally 1 degree, which is equal to approximately 111 kilometers. For lines of longitude, the interval also 1 degree at the equator but converges towards the poles. This means that longitude lines are furthest apart at the equator and converge to meet at the poles.
They are imaginary lines drawn on maps that help in navigation and in fixing the position of a ship or aeroplane.
No. The lines on maps are imaginary - they do not exist.
The imaginary lines of longitude and latitude drawn on maps and globes of the Earth, is to aid navigation and accurately locating spots on the Earth's surface.

these are the imaginary lines to check the gmt and location of a place

Isohytes are lines drawn on maps joining places of equal rainfall.

These lines are not actually on the planet, but are imaginary lines used to help us find our way around the curved surface of Earth
There is no official set of "lines". Some globes and maps have more lines, spaced closer together. Some globes and maps have fewer lines, spaced farther apart. Some globes and maps have no lines at all. We have no way of knowing how many latitudes are marked on the globe or map that you're looking at today, and the next one you see may be marked at a different interval.
