Plants and animals that live in the North Pole?

Answer 1

The geographic North Pole is in the Arctic Ocean. There is no land for at least 700 miles in any direction. The ocean is covered with sea ice, which varies in thickness between 2 and 3 meters. The ice pack drifts and is unstable; sometimes it smashes together, forming pressure ridges and sometimes it splits apart to expose open water. There are no visible plants at the North Pole, at any time of year.

The only plant life in the Arctic Ocean is phytoplankton, which is mainly found away from the North Pole, where it can get more light and feed off the nutrients from the rivers that flow into the ocean.

Answer 2

No. The North Pole sits on a floating ice shelf, not land. this means there is no soil and the North Pole is unable to support plant or animal life.

The North Pole is quite different to the Arctic, where there are numerous land masses over which the ice sits. These regions can support plant and animal life.

Many plants are adapted to live in arctic conditions of the tundra but are most commonly seen when the snow has melted during the short summer. Some of these plants include asparagus, purple saxifrage, mountain avens, wild crocus, arctic poppies, buttercups, cinquefoil, moss campion, campanulas, arctic azaleas, arctic lupine as well as mosses, tundra grasses, herbs, lichens and small shrubs like the dwarf willow and arctic willow.
