Dear Maple users

I can easily draw a sphere with the following command:

plot3d(1, t = -Pi .. Pi, p = 0 .. Pi, coords = spherical)

Let's say I want to change the number of latitude circles so that there is one for every 10 degrees? Longitude circles are given for every 15 degrees, which is appropriate - corresponding to one for every hour! But in general: Is there a way to change the number of circles of both types? Or maybe you need to piece together a plot of several kinds of plots?
