A Polar terrain refers to the physical landscape of a polar region. There are two polar regions on earth, the Antarctic and the Arctic.
Antarctic Terrain: This rocky continent's terrain is 98% ice sheet and 2% barren rock. Glaciers and ice shelves make up large parts of the coastline. The ice sheet holds about 30 million cubic kilometres (7 million cubic miles) of ice.
Arctic Terrain: The centre is a floating ice pack about 3 metres thick. In summer the ice is surrounded by open seas, but in winter the ice spreads out to reach the barren and rocky land of the islands north of Canada and the northern Coastlines of Europe and Asia.
The northernmost polar region of the Northern Hemisphere is called the Arctic Region.
The northern polar region contains more land compared to the southern polar region. This is because the Arctic region, located in the northern hemisphere, is mostly surrounded by landmasses while the Antarctic region in the southern hemisphere is mostly covered by ice with a continent beneath it.
The northern polar region has more land as it includes the Arctic region surrounded by continents such as North America, Europe, and Asia. In contrast, the southern polar region, Antarctica, is a continent surrounded by the Southern Ocean.
In the Arctic Polar Region, there is the US, Canada, Denmark (via Greenland), Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia. In the Antarctic Polar Region, there is only the continent of Antarctica.
in the south polethe polar region is located in the northern part of the world or earth i think
The south polar region's elevation is higher than the north polar region, because the south polar region is a continent and the north polar region is ocean.
the north of Siberia is in the polar region.
The opposite of a tropical region is a polar region.
The polar region around the North Pole is called the Arctic and the polar region around the South Pole is called the Antarctic Region
The Arctic and antarctic are the two polar ice regions. Iceland does exist, but is not considered to be a polar region.
Let's think for a second, POLAR bears live in a POLAR region. So do you think POLAR bears will have a problem not living in a POLAR region?
This answer is defined by polar regions between 60 and 90 degrees of latitude. The southern polar region is included in the Antarctic region of the planet. Antarctica is a continent that makes up 10% of the Earth's surface. the northern polar region is located in the Arctic ocean, and it is surrounded by more land than you will find in the southern polar region.
You'll find the South Pole in the South Polar Region.

No, Antarctica is a polar region.
