it's because ice caps are frozen.
no idea but the moon with 100% ice caps is europa
Mars' ice caps are predominantly made up of water ice, with some layers also containing a mix of frozen carbon dioxide, also known as dry ice. The white polar caps are primarily composed of water ice, while the seasonal polar caps are a combination of water ice and frozen carbon dioxide.
Ice caps are made of fresh water. When this ice melts into the ocean, it contributes to the salinity of the water in that area.
Approximately 68.7% of Earth's fresh water is stored in ice caps and glaciers. This means that, when considering all the water on Earth, about 1.7% is in the form of ice. Given that the vast majority of Earth's water is saltwater, the percentage of total water represented by ice caps and glaciers is relatively small.
Mars is the planet known to have water primarily found in its polar ice caps. These ice caps consist of water ice and dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide). While there is evidence of liquid water in the past, current observations indicate that water is largely trapped in these icy regions. The presence of water ice on Mars is significant for future exploration and potential habitability.

Yes, the moon has ice caps at its poles. These ice caps are composed mostly of water ice, and they have been confirmed by various spacecraft missions. The ice might have come from comets or possibly accumulated from water molecules present on the moon's surface.
No, but there is ice in the caps.
Mars, Earth, and Pluto have polar ice caps. Mars' polar ice caps are primarily made of water and carbon dioxide ice, Earth's polar ice caps are primarily made of frozen water, and Pluto's polar ice caps are a mixture of methane and nitrogen ice.

Mars has polar ice caps at its north and south poles. These ice caps are primarily composed of water ice and carbon dioxide ice. The polar ice caps on Mars play a significant role in the planet's climate and atmospheric composition.
It is estimated that ice caps and glaciers contain about 68.7% of the world's fresh water supply. This frozen water is stored primarily in Greenland and Antarctica, with smaller amounts in other glaciers around the world. Melting of these ice caps contributes to global sea level rise.
Mars does have water, it is just frozen in its ice caps.
Mars has water (Ice) on its polar caps
