    The maximum of 1 degree lines that can be drawn on a globe is 360 for longitude, and 180 for latitude.

    Explanation:

    The longitude and latitude lines are imaginary lines that have been set by the humans so that they have better orientation and coordination on the planet. The longitude lines run from north to south and they measure the distance of a place from the prime longitude line, or rather prime meridian, Greenwich. The latitude lines run from east to west and they measure the distance from the Equator.

    There are 180 degrees of longitude on each the east and west, meaning that if lines are set at 1 degree there can be a maximum of 360. There are 90 degrees of latitude on each north and south, meaning that if lines are set at 1 degree there can a maximum of 180.
