Circumpolar constellations means that a constellation orbits around the north star. Otherwise, polaris.
There's no answer to this question, because the definition of circumpolar depends on where you are. If you're at the pole, all the constellations you can see are circumpolar. If you're on the equator, there are no circumpolar constellations.
The circumpolar constellations
Circumpolar constellations are visible all year long, depending on where you are viewing them from. At the north pole, or the south pole, some constellations are visible year-round, these are the circumpolar constellations. On the equator, there are no circumpolar constellations because of the earths rotation, that is why circumpolar constellations are at the "poles". Some of the circumpolar constellations can also be viewed from other parts of the same hemisphere, such as the big dipper and the little dipper, although they are circumpolar, they are also seen in other parts of the northern hemisphere. Circumpolar constellations in the northern hemisphere, will never be seen at the south pole, and vice versa. I hope this helped.
No, all locations on Earth have constellations that are circumpolar, meaning they never dip below the horizon. The specific constellations will vary depending on the observer's latitude.
Circumpolar Constellations are those that appear to circle the North Star, Polaris. Polaris' place in the sky changes based on the viewers latitude. The closer you get to the North Pole, the higher in the sky Polaris appears, and therefore the more constellations appear to spin around Polaris.

No, circumpolar constellations are those that never set below the horizon as viewed from a certain latitude. On the equator, all constellations are visible at some point during the year but none are permanently circumpolar.
These are called circumpolar constellations.

Yes, they are.

Seasonal constellations are visible only at certain times of the year due to Earth's orbit around the Sun, while circumpolar constellations are visible year-round from a specific location near the poles due to their proximity to the celestial pole. Seasonal constellations rise and set, while circumpolar constellations appear to constantly circle the celestial pole without rising or setting.
These are called circumpolar constellations.
