What oceans are higher in latitude than the Indian?
Is it just the Arctic Ocean? Or is it the Arctic ocean , north atlantic ocean and north pacific ocean?
What continents are in three hemispheres?
Antarctica, S.America , and Europe?
Arctic ocean , north atlantic ocean and north pacific ocean?
Continents in three hemispheres?
Antarctica
Not S. American and Europe

South America looks to be in northern, southern and western hemispheres?
Yes, that is what I thought for the oceans with latitudes higher than the Indian ocean.
Also would the other continent in three hemispheres be Asia?
Yes, you're right about South America. I wasn't thinking.
Asia is in three hemispheres.
Africa is in four hemispheres.
Thanks!
Sorry about my goof. I'm glad you caught it.
You're welcome.
To determine which oceans are higher in latitude than the Indian Ocean, we need to compare their respective latitudes. The latitudes of oceans refer to their position north or south of the equator.
The Indian Ocean is primarily located in the Southern Hemisphere, extending from approximately 20 degrees south to 65 degrees north latitude. Therefore, any ocean with latitudes higher than 65 degrees north would be considered higher in latitude than the Indian Ocean.
Among the oceans you mentioned, only the Arctic Ocean meets this criterion. The Arctic Ocean extends from approximately 66 degrees north latitude to the North Pole, making it higher in latitude than the Indian Ocean.
The North Atlantic Ocean and North Pacific Ocean, also known as the Atlantic and Pacific respectively, are not as high in latitude as the Indian Ocean or the Arctic Ocean. They span various latitudes but do not extend far enough north to surpass the Indian Ocean's latitude.
So, to summarize, only the Arctic Ocean is higher in latitude than the Indian Ocean.
