Countries that are located closer to the poles, such as Norway, Finland, and other Scandinavian countries, experience periods of extended daylight during the summer months due to the phenomenon of the midnight sun. This occurs because the Earth's tilt causes the sun to never fully set below the horizon during certain times of the year, resulting in more daylight than night in these regions.

Does antarctica have 6 months of day and 6 months of night?

Not all of it -- only a tiny region near the South Pole experiences 6 months of continuous daylight followed by nearly 6 months of continuous night. The North Pole has a similar division between day and night, each lasting one half of the year. However, practically all of Antarctica experiences at least 24 hours of continuous day or night, and weeks or months of continuous day or night occur in various locations. *Because of the width of the solar disc, and refraction by the atmosphere, there are about 2 or 3 more days of daylight per year than there are of night.


When does the big dipper not appear in the night sky?

Does stress induce estrous in female ferrets?

No, in female ferrets estrous is control by the amount of light or daylight they are exposed to. Female Ferret "Jills" are "seasonally polyestrous" which means they have multiple heat cycles, in spring and summer.The ferret is a photoreceptive breeder. Breeding season is triggered by photoperiod, the length of daylight hours, it's when there is more daylight than night or the ratio of daylight hours to night time hours to cause physical changes in their bodies.

What country has a 6 month day and 6 month night?

No country, but a small part of Antarctica will. Only the North and South Pole have a 6 month period of continuous daylight and nearly 6 months of night. Parts of some countries extend above the Arctic Circle and can have more than 24 hours of sunlight in summer (midnight sun), and more than 24 hours of night during the winter (polar night). Svalbard, Norway has a 5-month period from April to September when the Sun never sets, only circles the horizon.
