The Earth are two North Poles: the geographic North Pole and the magnetic north pole. The geographic North Pole does not move.
The magnetic North Pole (this is the North Poles that allows a compass to work) does move. It moves (very slowly) due to changes in the Earth's magnetic field caused by the movement of liquid metal beneath the Earth's surface. (The Earth's magnetic North Pole is currently near the geographic South Pole, near Antarctica. Conversely, the Earth's magnetic South Pole is currently near the geographic North Pole.)
No, Earth's magnetic poles are not located exactly on its geographical poles. The magnetic poles are located slightly off-axis and can shift over time due to changes in the Earth's magnetic field.
True. The magnetic poles move constantly.
Anaphase. In this phase of mitosis, the daughter chromosomes are pulled apart by the spindle fibers and move towards opposite poles of the cell.
The spacing of parallels decreases as you move towards the poles. This is because the lines of latitude converge towards the poles since the Earth's circumference decreases as you move away from the equator.
Geographic poles refer to the Earth's axis points where it meets the surface (North and South Poles), while magnetic poles refer to points where the Earth's magnetic field is the strongest. These poles do not align exactly; the geographic poles are fixed, while the magnetic poles can shift position over time due to changes in the Earth's magnetic field.
yes, the north and south poles are geographical poles.
The geographic poles move hardly at all ... fractions of a millimeter in response todrastic geological events, such as extreme earthquakes.The Earth's magnetic poles can move hundreds of meters in the span of a year.
The geographical poles are the North and South Poles. The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles.
A compass needle points to the magnetic poles, which are not the same as the geographic poles. There is nothing special about the magnetic field at the geographic poles.

Warm currents move from the equator to the poles, and the cold currents move from the poles to the equator. :D

True. The magnetic poles move constantly.
The North and South Poles are the ends of the earth's geographical axis.
The Arctic and the Antarctic are two separate geographical designations, surrounding the North and South Poles respectively.
