Expert Solution

Step 1: Define hemisphere

The term "Homisphere" may also be used for other astronomical objects, e.g. on planets when it refers to one of the two parallel halves that make up a complete sphere. The hemispheres, as a means of separating and describing the distribution of land, climate patterns or seasons for Earth and its heavenly neighbors, are often used.
In astronomy and geography, hemispheres are terms used to describe half of a sphere or roughly spherical object. The Northern Hemisphere which includes the regions to the north of the equator and the Southern Hemisphere that includes the region at the southern end of the equator can be considered as part of both halves of the Earth.
