Polar bears are highly adapted to life in the Arctic and spend a significant amount of time in the water, hunting for seals, their primary food source. They are excellent swimmers and can cover long distances in the water between ice floes. However, they also rely on sea ice for resting and breeding, so their time in water can vary depending on ice conditions and seasonal changes. Overall, while they are often seen in the water, their time is balanced with activities on the ice.

How have polar bears adapted to a melting ice cap?
There is no evidence that they have adapted. Polar bears now have to spend more time on land, during the lengthening summers, where they can no longer hunt for seals, their main food source. There are reports that they are competing with land bears for food, with little success.
What happens when shared electrons between hydrogen and oxygen spend more time orbiting the oxygen than the hydrogen and what effect does this have on water molecules?
If you think of it in terms of time, the electrons always spend more on the oxygen. This creates polar bonds, and as the molecule is not symmetrical, it means that the whole molecule is polar.
How are polar bears and penguins different?
Penguins are birds, they are black and white, and they eat small fish.Polar bears are mammals, they weight approx 300kg or more, and they eat variable size of fish and seals.The polar bear is a mammal, the penguin is a birdThe polar bear is a predator, the penguin is both predator and preyThe polar bear lives in the Arctic, the penguin lives in the southern hemisphere (many around the Antarctic)The Polar bear hibernates, the penguin is active all year round.
Do water molecules in the liquid state have more energy than water molecules in the polar state?
Do water molecules in the liquid state have more energy than water molecules in the polar state
How does the climate change affect the polar bear?
The polar sea ice is shrinking each year. Each year the winter sea ice melts faster. Polar bears need to bulk up in winter by eating seals. Now they have a shorter time for feeding. The Hudson Bay bears are forced onto the land during summer where they compete for food and living space with humans and other animals. Food shortages mean that bears are weaker, fewer cubs are born and those that do are more likely to die.its melting the ice at the poles, destroying the bears homes
Do polar bears spend most of their time on land?
Polar bears eat seals, and seals are found in the sea.
Are there more polar bears or bears in the world?
bears

Do female polar bears kill baby polar bears?
The male is more known to do this, although females bears can and do kill their young.
What pole do polar bears come from?
Polar bears live only at the North Pole, or, more correctly, in the Arctic.
Are there more seals then polar bears?
yes there are.
Is there more then one color of polar bears?
no....
Can polar bears eat seaweed?
There are rare cases of adult male polar bears eating young bears. Polar bears are NOT the same as black or grizzly bears - those species are known to kill cubs in an effort to send the female back into heat in order to mate. This is called infanticide and this behaviour has not been observed in polar bears. If an adult polar bear kills a cub it is most likely cannibalism, driven by desperate hunger. Due to rapidly shrinking Arctic sea ice, polar bears don't get to spend as much time on the ice hunting their primary source of food: seals. So if polar bears are stuck on land for longer periods of time, they may become more desperate for food sources.
Can a polar bear kill a brown bear?
Yes. Polar bears are bigger, more beastly, and stronger than brown bears.
How are polar bears and brown bears different?
The diet depends on the habitat e.g. the polar bear will hunt and consume animals below it in the polar habitat e.g. seals, whereas the brown bear which resides in woodland habitats would feed on woodland creatures e.g. foxes.
Which are more popular pandas or polar bears?
