Tropical air is warm and moist due to high sea water evaporation. Polar air is cold and dry due to less evaporation taking place. Any rain is likely to fall as snow in the polar regions.
Both can occur in the tropics, though tornadoes are more common in temperate areas. All hurricanes form in the tropics but they can move into temperate regions.
People from the Arctic carry more fat because extra fat is an adaptation to cold environments.
There are many animals found in the cold regions. Some of these animals include seals, penguins, sea lions, walrus, polar bears an many more.
By definition, tropical rainforests are found in the tropics, more specifically between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, about 23 degrees N and S of the equator. Parts of Canada are in the arctic circle. So no.
Highland regions are considered a distinct climate because they tend to have shorter growing seasons, more extremes in daily temperatures, and more precipitation.
Snowy owls live in the arctic tundra and they DON'T LIVE IN THE USA IN WINTER. more like arctic regions
They receive more direct sunlight than the other parts of the globe.
Global warming models predict that the arctic zone will warm more than the temperate zone, which in turn will warm more than the tropics.

1. the ground loses heat more quickly than the air does 2. cool northern regions receive warm weather when the heat from the tropics is released 3.global winds push masses away from the tropics
There is no such thing as half-desert. There are semi-desert regions and semi-arid regions which are the same thing. They are regions that resemble the desert in some respects but receive more rainfall than the desert. These regions would average more than 10 inches (250 mm) of precipitation per year.
