How do fish in antarctica not freeze?

Answer 1

Antarctica is melting, but it is like a giant mirror. The sun shines on Antarctica and it reflects back out to space. It is also extremely cold (the record is: −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F) at Vostok Station), so it's difficult to see the changes. Global warming is causing more precipitation there, which is falling as snow. This is building up in the centre of the continent. Warmer waters are causing more ice shelves to split from the coasts, so the overall result is less ice.

Answer 2

Just because the temperature is below zero doesn't mean the whole body of water of the antarctic ocean can be frozen.

The reason why the surface of the water does not freeze is because the ocean currents make the water move constantly

Answer 3

Antarctica is a continent and fish live in liquid water. The Southern Ocean's water is cold, yes, very cold indeed, and fish that thrive there have adapted to this, their natural environment.

Antarctica is surrounded by the Southern Ocean.

Answer 4

Many of them freeze however they have a number of adaptations and behaviors that improve their chances of living in a harsh environment.

Answer 5

They have special feathers to protect them from the cold

Answer 6

In winter, the Southern Ocean around the Antarctic continent does freeze, essentially doubling the size of the ice sheet that covers 98% of the Antarctic continent.

Answer 7

The water is salty
